We Help Professionals Become Business Owners
HCPA Business School exists because talented professionals had no clear path to building businesses in regulated industries.
For 15+ years, we've built businesses, secured licences, raised capital, and scaled operations in cannabis and telehealth.
We've made the expensive mistakes. Now we're handing you the roadmap.
Find Out MoreThe Problem We Solved
Here's what we kept seeing:
People would get excited about cannabis or telehealth. Maybe they had some experience. Maybe they had none at all. Didn't matter.
They'd start researching. They'd watch YouTube videos. They'd read articles.
Then they'd hit the wall:
"Wait, what licences do I need?"
"How do I stay compliant?"
"What if I make a mistake and get fined $50K?"
"What if I set everything up wrong and lose everything?"
The opportunity was real. The money was real. But the fear was bigger.
Here's the thing: In regulated industries, you can't afford to guess.
One compliance mistake? You're looking at massive fines, legal issues, or your entire operation shut down before it even starts.
Most people either:
- Never start (too scared of messing up)
- Start wrong (and pay for it later)
We built HCPA because there was nothing like it. No clear path. No step-by-step system that showed you how to build a business the RIGHT way from day one.
Not theory. Not business school concepts. Not generic advice.
Just the exact compliance frameworks, legal checklists, and business systems that keep you protected whilst you build something profitable.
We've made the expensive mistakes. You don't have to.
How We're Different: Implementation Over Information
Most business education teaches theory, not execution.
You sit through lectures. Take notes. Feel smart.
Then try to build something... and have no idea where to start.
We give you step-by-step systems you implement immediately.
Need to file your LLC? Here's the form, how to fill it, where to submit it.
Need a financial model? Here's the template, the formula, what the numbers mean.
Need to stay compliant? Here's the checklist, what each requirement means, how to prove you're following rules.
No theory. No fluff. Just: "Do this. Then this. Then this."

Never filed a business? We'll show you. Don't know financials? We'll explain in plain English. We assume nothing.
2. Every Lesson Leads to Action
No 2-hour lectures. Learn something, get the template, implement it. We care about execution.

4. Real-World Systems, Not Theories
Everything we teach, we've done. No textbook frameworks. Just what actually works.

Why HCPA Certification Actually Matters
We're not a university. We're a professional training institution teaching real-world systems to build compliant, profitable businesses.
An HCPA certification tells people:
- You've been properly trained
- You're not guessing
- You're serious and prepared
Here's what this means in the real world:
When you're applying for licences, regulators see you've done your homework.
When you're interviewing for jobs, employers see structured, comprehensive training.
When you're pitching investors, they see you've invested in proper training. You're prepared.
In regulated industries where most people are guessing, proper training gives you the edge
