As families mourn the loss of those who have died, they want to ensure that the personality of the person being honored is reflected in end-of-life arrangements. While funeral directors provide the invaluable service of preparing the body of the decedent for disposition, having a person on staff who can speak about the life of the person who has died is equally important.

Certified Celebrant Training helps individuals learn more about connecting with families, speaking with empathy, and gathering stories to create an individualized service that accurately reflects the person being honored. We are offering 30 individuals the opportunity to become a Certified Celebrant by taking part in the Certified Celebrant Training, led by Glenda S. Stansbury, MA, CFSP, at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City from Tuesday, September 16 through Thursday, September 18, 2025.

Registration for this event includes three days of training, meals, hotel accommodation, a complimentary parking pass and networking with other funeral professionals.

Certified Celebrant Training registrations may not be canceled after August 15, 2025. If the original registrant is unable to attend, the registration may be transferred to another attendee.
