Testimonials

Diploma in Funeral Directing course

“Thank you to my tutor Anne, along with Emily, for your time, help and great support throughout my Diploma in Funeral Directing (Direct Entry Route) course. The online Zoom lessons were well put together with extra insight from guest speakers and the lessons were conducted extremely well in a friendly, interactive manner. Both Anne and Emily are very knowledgeable and I would recommend anyone with experience to complete this course – I should have done it years ago! Thank you.”

“Fantastic training, very professional. Delivered well, the personal stories were very powerful”

PC 334 Oliver Button, Norfolk Constabulary

“A really informative and interactive session pitched at just the right level. The two trainers have a really relaxed and calm way of imparting their knowledge. There was plenty of checking on the participants welfare throughout the session, and the support information sent after the training was invaluable. I feel prepared should I be called upon to deliver bereavement support during this unprecedented time.”
