| I live in Texas and have a certificate as a medical assistant. I have worked in doctor's offices for ten years. I have recently become interested in the possibility of becoming an embalmer, but there are no training facilities in the city where I live. Do funeral homes accept home-study certificates when applying for embalming jobs? |
| There is currently NO ACCREDITED PROGRAM for any mortuary science degree which is accepted by any state leading to licensure. No reputable mortuary would lead you to believe that such a program will benefit you in any way because it won't. Do not waste your money! There are over 40 accredited mortuary science programs offering quality education in this field. San Antonio, Dallas and Houston are well regarded and can assist you with valuable information about a career in funeral service. Do it once - Do it right. You won't regret it and you'll be fully qualified when you're done. |
