People with the right skills and mindset can enjoy a lucrative and rewarding career in the field.

Students should enroll in an institution that offers an accredited program. This ensures they receive the best training for the job. To receive accreditation, schools must undergo stringent reviews at least once every seven years to prove they are meeting the proper standards for student training.

Applying for a license requires students to pass courses in many different subjects. Some of these classes focus on the business aspect of running a funeral home, including employee management, marketing, inventory control, and accounting. Training is also necessary to develop the skills to properly embalm and restore human remains in preparation for burial.

Individuals pursuing careers as funeral directors must meet state requirements to earn a license. Each state has its own rules with some requiring applicants to take classes for two years to earn a degree. Certain states, such as Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota and Oklahoma require applicants to earn a four-year degree.
