How to become a funeral director
Look into informal training.
Depending on your state's requirements, a formal education may not be necessary. Many funeral directors in the united states were born into the trade, or gained entry via a local business early on.
If a local funeral home is willing to provide you training, informal training may be enough to eventually obtain an apprenticeship and a license. Keep in mind, most funeral homes will only provide training to those with formal education.
