NASHVILLE,TN— B. Ste-
ven Spann, president of
John A. Gupton College,
has announced the cre-
ation and implementation
of a new totally online As-
sociate of Applied Science
Degree in Funeral Service.
The student who suc-
cessfully completes the re-
quirements for this degree
will be eligible to sit for
the National Board Ex-
amination, which is re-
quired for final licensure
as a funeral director and
embalmer.
President Spann has set
April 1, 2017 as the date
for the inauguration of
this new online program.
The program is fully ac-
credited by the Ameri-
can Board of Funeral Ser-
vice Education as well as
the Southern Association of
Colleges and Schools. The
program takes between 12
and 16 months to com-
plete depending on the
evaluation of the appli-
cants prior college course
work.
According to Spann,
“The long history of John
A. Gupton College is a
history of innovation and
creativity. Several years
ago we started our own
Cremation Certification
program so our gradu-
ating students would be
certified and qualified to
professionally serve cre-
mation families, and now
once again JAG is on the
cutting edge by offering
the new Associate of Ap-
plied Science Degree in
Funeral Service. We are
blessed to have a well ex-
perienced staff of licensed
funeral directors and em-
balmers who will serve
as the core faculty in this
new program. If you are
interested in becoming a
licensed funeral profes-
sional, and accomplish
this without having the
relocate, John A. Gupton
College has the answer.”
