The funeral service program at 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ is top notch. I was never a big fan of remote/online based learning but between the setup of the program and the excellent staff, it was easy to keep up with everything that needed to be done. Every staff member of the program has a great passion for teaching and helping you grow into the next generation of funeral service professionals. They have all the info to help you grow as a person and learn the information needed to pass your boards. You will have the opportunity to study with and learn from people from all over the country and the world.

The funeral service program at 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ was a great program that helped me become confident in the field. I learned great skills that will benefit me from being a funeral director to an embalmer. This program worked for me, being able to do it online remotely. I was able to work full-time; and gain knowledge from being able to work hands on doing an apprenticeship. The courses here at 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ were beneficial and important to help us be successful as we go and serve the families in the areas where we reside.
