Cremation - A Historical Perspective

This course introduces the student to the historical significance of cremation. The student is challenged to understand cremation from various cultural and religious points of view. The student is also challenged to question modern reasons to cremation. This is the first course in a series about cremation.

The OACFP has partnered with the Canadian College of Funeral Service (CCFS) to provide you access to numerous on-line continuing education courses that are available for professional development and have been accredited for CE hours toward license renewal. Each course is set up so that a participant can either complete it in one session or they may access it over time at different intervals. Upon completion of the course, OACFP will send the participant a certificate of completion. Each completed course is equivalent to three (3) hours of credit.
