THC Cultivation Technician II
Eight public academic courses focused on evidence-based troubleshooting, verification, coordination and supervised performance preparation. Complete the Technician I prerequisite pathway before using Technician II as an advanced sequence.
Technician II course sequence
Advanced Crop Observation & Diagnostic Reasoning
Develops structured multi-factor crop observation, evidence collection, differential reasoning, uncertainty communication, and escalation for abnormal crop conditions within Technician II authority.
Environmental Data, Sensors & Equipment Response
Builds advanced interpretation of environmental and lighting data, sensor validity, spatial patterns, alarms, and safe equipment-response boundaries.
Fertigation Execution, Verification & Root-Zone Interpretation
Develops verification of water and fertigation inputs, irrigation execution, root-zone response, and evidence-based troubleshooting without exceeding authorization.
Plant Health, IPM & Biosecurity Troubleshooting
Develops advanced scouting, trend interpretation, containment reasoning, treatment follow-up, and biosecurity escalation within approved IPM programs.
Propagation & Canopy Performance Troubleshooting
Develops propagation performance analysis, donor/batch troubleshooting, advanced canopy and flowering response review, biosecurity-aware evidence interpretation, and supervisor-ready handoff without conferring independent high-risk intervention authority.
Harvest/Postharvest Deviations & Quality Response
Develops postharvest deviation containment, drying/process trend interpretation, representative product measurement, lot genealogy and affected-scope reasoning, controlled-deviation review, and QA-ready handoff without conferring product release or disposition authority.
Traceability, Production Metrics, Shift Coordination & Peer Support
Develops traceability reconciliation, lot/crop genealogy, KPI calculation and trend interpretation, controlled-record integrity, SOP-based peer task support, shift prioritization and supervisor-ready handoff within senior-technician authority boundaries.
Integrated Technician II Simulation Lab
Integrates the seven Technician II performance practicals and Senior Technician Diagnostic Shift capstone through supervised, evidence-based performance preparation. Readiness knowledge checks are formative only; completion requires each mapped practical and the capstone to independently meet its performance standard with no critical errors.
