New Course at Randolph Community College Archdale Focuses on Changing Funeral Industry

Randolph Community College’s Archdale Center will offer a one-day course on Nov. 10 focusing on the changing funeral industry.

“Meeting the Funeral Service Needs of a Changing Population” is designed to provide education and understanding about the societal changes and trends (particularly with certain age groups) that are affecting the funeral profession and suggest possible solutions for addressing them.

This information will help funeral directors and others in the industry communicate more effectively with and assist family members of the deceased as well as individuals who are planning their own funeral services. It will also cover marketing materials and marketing strategies, updating or developing a website, strengthening presence on social media, and planning for the future.
