Licensing requirements differ from province to province. In Ontario, a licensed funeral director requires a specific educational background. Application must be made to a Funeral Service Education program at a college recognized by the Bereavement Authority of Ontario(BAO), which is the licensing and regulatory body for the funeral service profession in Ontario.
