AI Summary

This bill establishes a new state licensing process for associate funeral directors, meaning individuals who wish to work in this role must now obtain a license from the office of professional licensure and certification. To qualify for this license, applicants must pass approved examinations, complete a funeral director certificate program, and undergo a one-year apprenticeship under a licensed funeral director or embalmer. The bill also clarifies the definition of an associate funeral director to mean someone licensed under these new provisions and updates existing law to include these new requirements in the rulemaking authority for funeral directors and embalmers.
