The core curriculum is 100% federal — and that's deliberate. State modules layer the jurisdiction-specific detail on top: conformity to (or decoupling from) §280E, state licensing and tax nuance, and the local filing reality your clients actually face.
The first state modules are built around the most active markets. More are added as the Academy grows — and you can request the one you need.
New York's adult-use market, the state's §280E posture, and the licensing and tax detail unique to operating here.
New Jersey's regulated market, its corporate tax treatment of cannabis, and the local compliance picture for operators and their accountants.
Additional state deep-dives are in development, prioritized by where practitioners and operators need them most.

Notify me →Each state module assumes you already have the federal grounding from the Essentials Guide and Track 1 — §280E, §471 COGS, and chart-of-accounts discipline. The state layer adds jurisdiction-specific detail on top; it isn't a standalone substitute for the federal core.
Not necessarily — the federal tracks give you the foundation that applies everywhere. A state module adds depth where state law diverges from federal treatment, which is valuable when you're serving operators concentrated in one market.
State law changes far faster than federal fundamentals. Keeping the core 100% federal means your foundation stays evergreen, while state modules can be updated independently as the law shifts.
New York and New Jersey are the first modules, with more in development. If you need a specific state, email hello@cannabisaccountingacademy.com — demand directly shapes the build order.
No — like everything in the Academy, state modules are educational. Always verify current state law and apply professional judgment on a specific engagement.
