About The College

The Canadian College of Funeral Service is Canada’s foremost institution for funeral service education. With over 40 years of history, our college, initially founded in Manitoba as the Western School of Funeral Service, continues to be the only school dedicated solely to fostering a new generation of skilled funeral service professionals across Canada.

Over the years, our programs have evolved and expanded to meet the profession’s needs by transitioning to an online platform and expanding to the East Coast, thanks to the vision and leadership of our founders, Stewart Windrum and Joe Coffey. Since taking ownership in 2015, Roger Girouard has guided the college toward innovation and excellence, ensuring high-quality education and support for all students and licensees. We pride ourselves on our commitment to professional development, ensuring you receive exceptional education and support to start or elevate your career in the funeral service profession.
