Question: 1 / 135

When can an individual take the embalmer exam?

After completing a 12-week internship

After completion of mortuary science college regardless of apprenticeship

The correct choice is based on the requirement that an individual must graduate from an accredited mortuary science program to be eligible for the embalmer exam. This means that completion of the educational component, which is a standardized course of study covering all essential areas of embalming and funeral service, is a prerequisite for taking the exam. The other choices do not align with the established requirements. For example, while internships and apprenticeships are valuable experiences in the field, they do not solely qualify a candidate for the exam unless they have also completed their educational degree in mortuary science. Similarly, merely passing a written test does not grant the right to take the embalmer exam without having first obtained the necessary educational background. Lastly, being appointed by a licensed funeral director, while significant for practical experience, is not a definitive criterion for exam eligibility unless the candidate has already fulfilled the educational requirements.
