December 11, 2009, Newsletter Issue #109: Accreditation and the Online Interior Design Degree

Tip of the Week

If you are considering getting an online interior design degree and are concerned about accreditation – here is something to keep in mind. To date, the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (formerly FIDER), the organization which sets the minimum standards for an interior design education, has not accredited any online interior design degree. Keep in mind that accreditation is open to all programs in interior design, online or not. Lack of accreditation by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation does not necessarily mean a program lacks a strong interior design foundation. However, you should keep in mind whether your state requires you attend an accredited interior design program if you plan on getting licensed as an interior designer.
