Beschreibung des Programms

The Funeral Service Education degree program at Northampton Community College is accredited by the American Board of Funeral Service Education (ABFSE). The program is designed to give students a broad understanding of the funeral home operation, funeral directing, public health, and embalming for their internships and careers in the field. It typically takes students six semesters to complete this associate degree. This degree can be completed at our Bethlehem location.

Funeral Service operates as a business, but also requires professionals in the field to exhibit sensitivity and compassion in dealing with bereaved families. Funeral home employees must be open-minded about the ways in which people of different faiths and cultures express their feelings and practice their beliefs. Acceptance into the program is competitive, and applicants must have completed the minimum admission requirements of high school biology and chemistry labs with a C or with an overall high school GPA of 2.5 or better.

State licensing

If you are a Northampton Community College student living outside of Pennsylvania or intending to complete an internship or clinical placement outside of the state in an NCC program leading to professional licensure, you should review the requirements on the state board website to make sure that the program qualifies.

Licensure requirements vary from state to state and you may require additional authorization from the professional licensing agency in that state. Participating in a program from outside of Pennsylvania, if not properly authorized by that state's professional licensing board, could result in loss of licensing eligibility. If you need help or have questions, please contact the Program Director for more information.
