If you aspire to be both a funeral director and embalmer, the Funeral Service Education program is the perfect choice. Completion qualifies you for the National Board Examination for licensure.

The Funeral Directing and Management program caters exclusively to aspiring funeral directors, focusing on funeral directing and management. This online degree, designed for Washington state, prioritizes these aspects over embalming or funeral science. When you graduate, you’ll qualify for the Washington State Board Licensure Exam.

Your degree isn't just a milestone; it's a seamless gateway to a rewarding career in health sciences.

LWTech does not offer every course each quarter. It is the student's responsibility to consult the Class Schedule and work out an individual schedule with an advisor. Any developmental coursework you might be required to complete may increase the program length.

At LWTech, we welcome all students as an open enrollment college and we are committed to your inclusion at the college. This program of study leads to an industry or specific employers that may require a full or partial background check as well as a drug test before you start the job. Please know LWTech is committed to your inclusion at the college and you can talk with an advisor about alternative options that may be similar to this program.

LWTech has not made a determination that the Funeral Service Education curriculum meets educational requirements for licensure/certification outside of Washington State. We encourage students who plan to work out-of-state to check relevant local licensure/certification requirements.
