Taking care of a Pennsylvania referral or simply looking to strengthen your knowledge around cannabis? CourtCure offers online Marijuana/THC Awareness classes that focus on cannabis effects, impairment awareness, personal responsibility, safety considerations, and responsible decision-making. Multiple course lengths are available (2, 4, 8, 12, 16, or 24 hours), so you can match a court, probation, diversion, employer, school, or personal learning need. Because Pennsylvania handles marijuana-related matters at the local level, acceptance and hour requirements vary. Before you enroll, confirm the provider, format (online vs. in‑person), required hours, deadline, and completion-document details with the authority that referred you. Once you know what they require, choose your course length here and start on your own schedule—on desktop or mobile—so you can complete your education and be ready to submit documentation as instructed by your Pennsylvania authority.

Pennsylvania-Specific Information
Key Pennsylvania terms and agencies you may encounter: the Controlled Substance, Drug, Device and Cosmetic Act (state drug law), the Medical Marijuana Program (administered by the Department of Health), and PennDOT (license actions for DUI). Pennsylvania’s DUI statute (Title 75, Section 3802) addresses controlled substances, including cannabis. In practice, charges and outcomes are highly local. Some judicial districts routinely use education as part of conditional programs like Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) for certain offenses; others reserve classes for probation conditions or do not use them at all. Separately, several Pennsylvania cities have decriminalized possession of a small amount of marijuana within city limits by creating civil or summary penalties. These ordinances typically specify that they do not supersede state law; police may still proceed under state statutes depending on circumstances, and DUI/impairment enforcement remains statewide. If your situation involves employment or school policy, you may be asked to complete a class after a positive test, on-campus incident, or policy violation. Employers and institutions generally set their own education-hour requirements and proof-of-completion standards. Before enrolling, contact the authority that sent you: confirm whether an online Marijuana/THC Awareness class is acceptable, the exact number of hours required (CourtCure offers 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24-hour options), your due date, and how to submit proof. If you were cited in a city with a local marijuana ordinance, ask whether your case is being handled under city code or state law—this can affect what, if any, education is expected. Medical marijuana patients should note that program participation does not permit impaired driving or unsafe workplace behavior; authorities may still require education focused on impairment and decision-making.
Pennsylvania context for marijuana/THC education
As of August 19, 2026, recreational marijuana is not legalized statewide in Pennsylvania. The Commonwealth operates a medical marijuana program through the Department of Health, but driving while impaired by cannabis remains illegal. Pennsylvania’s Vehicle Code (Title 75) prohibits driving with controlled substances that impair safe operation, and marijuana-related DUI enforcement occurs across the state. Local decriminalization measures exist in several cities (including Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Harrisburg), which typically treat possession of a small amount as a civil or summary offense in those jurisdictions. However, those city ordinances do not override state law; police may still enforce state statutes where applicable, and separate charges (such as DUI or paraphernalia) can still be filed. What this means for you: people in Pennsylvania may be asked to complete a Marijuana/THC Awareness class in a variety of situations—such as a negotiated diversion (for example, ARD), a probation condition, or an employer/school request after a policy violation or incident tied to cannabis use. Requirements and hours vary by authority. If your situation involves driving, pay close attention to DUI-related instructions from the court and PennDOT. Medical marijuana patients should also remember that program participation does not permit impaired driving. Before you enroll here, verify your hours, deadline, delivery format, and completion-document needs so you can choose the correct course length and avoid delays.
Driving in Pennsylvania: THC and impairment basics
Pennsylvania’s DUI law includes cannabis. Authorities can charge drug-impaired driving based on evidence that a driver was unable to safely operate a vehicle due to a controlled substance. Penalties and license actions are handled under the Vehicle Code and by PennDOT. For practical planning, assume that any cannabis use close to driving can present risk and that your judge or probation officer may require education as part of resolving a DUI or related charge. If your referral is tied to a driving matter, ask the requesting authority whether they require a specific topic emphasis (for example, impairment awareness or decision-making) and whether a particular number of hours is expected. Also ask how they want your completion documented and submitted. If you are a medical marijuana patient, know that program participation does not authorize you to drive while impaired, and your court or probation instructions control what you must do to regain or keep driving privileges.

Acceptance & Requirements in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania does not have a single, statewide marijuana-education mandate. Whether a Marijuana/THC Awareness class will be accepted depends on the requesting authority (for example: a judge, probation officer, diversion program, attorney, employer, or school). Before enrolling, confirm the provider, delivery format (online vs. in-person), the exact number of hours required, your deadline, and what kind of completion document they want. Local practices can vary by county and even by courtroom. Some authorities tie education to diversion (such as ARD), probation conditions, or case negotiations; others may not require a class at all. CourtCure provides online course options and a completion document after you finish, but acceptance is determined by the requesting authority. If you are unsure what to take, contact that authority or your attorney first, then select the matching course length here.
Completion Certificate & Documentation
After successful completion of your selected CourtCure marijuana awareness course, you can access the completion certificate/documentation provided with that course. For a Pennsylvania 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.
Marijuana Awareness in Pennsylvania — Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Marijuana/THC Awareness class approved by Pennsylvania courts?
Pennsylvania does not operate a statewide approval list for marijuana classes. Acceptance is decided by the specific court, probation department, diversion program, attorney, employer, or school. Confirm provider, online format, required hours, deadline, and document needs with your authority before purchasing.
How many hours should I take for a PA referral?
Requirements vary. Some authorities ask for a short 2–4 hour course; others may require 8–24 hours, especially in DUI or probation contexts. Check your paperwork or contact the requesting authority to confirm the exact hours, then select the matching option here.
Does Philadelphia or Pittsburgh decriminalization mean I don’t need a class?
Not necessarily. Local ordinances reduce penalties for small-amount possession within city limits, but they do not override state law. Courts, probation, or diversion programs can still require education based on your circumstances. Ask your authority whether education is part of your resolution.
I’m a medical marijuana patient. Can I use this class for a DUI or workplace referral?
Medical program participation does not permit impaired driving or unsafe workplace behavior. If an authority requires education, this online Marijuana/THC Awareness class focuses on effects, impairment awareness, safety, and responsible decision-making. Always confirm acceptance, hours, and documentation with the requesting authority first.
