The American Board of Funeral Service Education (ABFSE)
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 1940's, the ABFSE became an autonomous agency in 1962. The
accrediting function of ABFSE is recognized by the US Department of Education and the Council on Higher Education Accreditation.
