Online Marijuana / THC Awareness Classes in Colorado

Colorado allows adult-use cannabis for people 21 and older, but many citations and probation conditions still stem from how and where marijuana is used. Public consumption is prohibited statewide except in limited hospitality settings authorized under state law and local rules. It’s also illegal to have an “open” marijuana container or to consume marijuana in a motor vehicle. Driving while impaired by cannabis is illegal. Colorado law allows a jury to infer impairment if a blood test shows 5 ng/mL or more of active delta‑9 THC, but this is not a per‑se “legal limit”—officers can cite for impairment below that level based on observed driving and sobriety indicators. These issues commonly lead to referrals for education. For justice‑involved cases, requirements are set locally: a municipal or county court, diversion program, or probation officer may specify a class and the number of hours. Separately, Colorado’s DUI/DWAI system uses state‑defined Level I/II education and therapy delivered by DUI‑licensed providers; that is a different track. Underage possession/consumption (MIP) cases may order substance‑abuse education programs approved by the state’s Behavioral Health Administration. Because policies and orders vary, always verify your exact hours, delivery format, and documentation needs before enrolling.

Impaired driving cases in Colorado frequently require completion of Level I (education) or Level II Education/Therapy through providers recognized by the state’s Behavioral Health Administration, and the Department of Revenue references those programs during driver‑license actions. Those structured DUI/DWAI tracks include set curricula and therapy “tracks” (A–D) and are not interchangeable with a general marijuana awareness course. If your paperwork mentions “Level I,” “Level II Education,” “Level II Therapy,” a DUI provider search, or a DRS (Driver Reinstatement/Referral Summary) form, you should contact your probation officer, attorney, or the ordering court to confirm next steps with a DUI‑licensed provider. If, instead, your order simply says to complete a marijuana/cannabis awareness or decision‑making class for a non‑DUI matter, this online course may be an option—provided the requesting authority confirms that an online, self‑paced class and your chosen number of hours are acceptable for your case.

Even though adult‑use cannabis is legal in Colorado, location matters. Using marijuana in a way that is “open and public” is prohibited. Some cities and counties allow limited marijuana hospitality businesses where on‑site use is permitted under strict rules, but most public places—including sidewalks, parks, and most lodging—do not allow consumption. In vehicles, state law prohibits both consuming marijuana and having an “open” container (for example, a container with a broken seal or with evidence of use). These rules apply to both residents and visitors and are frequently cited alongside other offenses. Violations can lead to court or diversion referrals that ask for an education class. If your citation involves public consumption or marijuana in a vehicle, verify whether the authority has a preferred provider, whether an online class is acceptable, and how many hours they require before you enroll here.

After successful completion of your selected CourtCure marijuana awareness course, you can access the completion certificate/documentation provided with that course. For a Colorado referral or requirement, confirm before enrolling what the requesting authority expects the completion document to show and how it should be submitted. The same CourtCure completion process is used for students in every state; acceptance, required hours, deadlines, and document requirements remain subject to the requesting authority.
