“Skilled trades” programs require students to attend in-person classes for an interesting hands-on learning experience!

The Pre-Funeral Service Program (A10300F) is designed for students who apply for the Funeral Service Program and need to complete prerequisite courses before being fully admitted into the official program. This preparatory stage ensures students meet all necessary requirements and are well-prepared for the rigorous curriculum of the Funeral Service Program.

Our North Carolina Funeral Director’s Diploma is available 100% online. If you are working at a funeral home, you will be able to complete certain Funeral Director Tasks that are required components of the program at your funeral home. However, if you are not, you will have to come to campus for simulations of certain task. In addition, you will have attend five funeral services that we cannot provide. If you are interested in embalming, you may want our Funeral Services Associate Degree. The majority of these classes are available online, except for Embalming and Restorative Arts. If you are employed at a funeral home, you may do much of your embalming practice there through our WBL or Work Based Learning option. You will still need to come to campus to show your instructors your embalming skills at least once. If you are not employed at a funeral home, you will have to attend our embalming labs here at the school. The labs are once a week for 8 weeks in both lab sections for a total of 16 embalming lab visits. Restorative Arts Labs are only held at our campus.

While the coursework for the Early Childhood Education Program is entirely online, students are required to complete observations at a daycare or school. These observations are essential for gaining practical experience and meeting the program’s educational standards.

The Pre-Cosmetology Program (A10300HS) is designed for students who apply for the Cosmetology Program but are not immediately accepted due to limited seats.
