What training and qualifications does a funeral director have?
The training and qualifications of funeral directors vary from state to state. There are some states that don't require funeral directors to have any training at all. Here in California, however, you have to have an associates degree in any subject. You must take and pass a funeral directors examination, and then be finger printed to make sure your background is clear of any criminal doings with regard to the industry, and then you are issued a license.
