Overview

Do you have a flair for design and would enjoy seeing an idea in your head forming into reality by adding those vital finishing touches that can really make a room come to life? Interior designers are creative, imaginative and artistic. They also need to be disciplined, organized and skilled business people. Combining knowledge with aesthetic vision, interior designers work with clients and other design professionals to develop design solutions that are safe, functional, attractive and meet the needs of the people using the space.

The objectives of the Distance Learning Interior Design course are:

  • Understand the history of interior design
  • Learn about classic design styles and the work of leading designers
  • Investigate the seven design elements which contribute to a design,
  • Explore the room elements which influence design
  • Undertake an actual interior design project
  • Develop a business plan for establishing a design business and also to identify tools of the trade.

This Level 3 Interior Design course will set out how you can make a living from your chosen career by looking at whether you have what it takes to embark on a career as an interior designer and explains factors such as Tax, VAT and insurance; to be sure that you have covered all of the requirements to set up and run your own Interior Design business.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
