Description
The ABFSE serves as the national academic accreditation agency for college and university programs in Funeral Service and Mortuary Science Education. Although its roots go back to the 1940s, the ABFSE became an autonomous agency in 1962. The US Department of Education and the Council on Higher Education Accreditation recognize it as the sole accrediting agency for academic programs that prepare funeral service professionals. There are currently 56 accredited programs in the United States and 1 candidates program. Of these programs, 13 are dedicated solely to funeral service education, while the remainder are found at multi-purpose colleges and universities.
