Volunteer leaders and executive directors from state funeral director associations across the country. However, all funeral service professionals are welcome, and young professionals interested in pursuing leadership roles are especially encouraged to attend.

NFDA has created a toolkit to help you organize and articulate the costs and -- more importantly -- the benefits for your professional growth and your organization. Click here to access these resources.

What’s covered:

Best practices in association management, leadership development topics, keynote speakers, the latest news in legal and advocacy efforts, and facilitated discussions on current challenges and opportunities in funeral service.

What else can I expect?

Ample opportunity for networking with your peers in the Breakout by Office sessions as well as social events. You’ll meet the candidates for the NFDA Board of Directors Officers prior to the election. Voting for the At-large Representatives on the NFDA Board of Directors takes place during Leadership Conference.

What are past participants saying?

The best part of the conference is always the networking and the things you learn from other funeral directors outside of the events.

I love the synergy attending this conference offers for me, and the rejuvenation of purpose that I leave with at the conclusion of conference. 

Having a specific conference that meets my needs to know more about how to be a better board member and how to make our association better.
