We are Australia's leading medical cannabis education provider.
Educating Healthcare Professionals
In Australia, medicinal cannabis is prescribed for a variety of medical conditions, with pain-related conditions being the most prevalent indication, accounting for 37% of reported use. Mental health conditions are the second most common indication (36%), followed by sleep disorders (15%).¹
As more robust data become available to support the use of medical cannabis in Australia, education focusing on prescribing options, individualised treatment and shared decision-making will become an important part of healthcare professionals’ toolkits.
SAGED is here to support you to stay at the forefront of a rapidly evolving industry.

Supporting the Industry
Many Australians are living with unmanaged chronic illnesses and there is a clear unmet need for effective treatment options.
Many patients face extended wait times or increased costs to access the healthcare they need. This is due to factors such as a complex regulatory environment and limited number of healthcare professionals offering medical cannabis as a treatment option for eligible patients.
We aim to address this unmet need by providing balanced education to healthcare professionals about the safe and effective use of medical cannabis.
