“A room should never allow the eye to settle in one place. It should smile at you and create fantasy.” - Juan Montoya

Oh, Juan...you hit the nail on the head! An expertly designed room should smile at you! But, not all do!

That’s why everyone could use the expertise of a great interior designer. Someone who can take a basic room and make it the most sought-after space in the house. Someone who can implement all that their client desires and add surprise touches that she didn’t even know she needed or wanted! And, that someone could be you!

Interior designers, home decorators, contractors, bloggers, vloggers, and many other professionals can use interior design to either earn a living or improve their credibility in their field. Think about some of your favorites in the biz...Joanna Gaines, Nate Berkus, and Emily Henderson for example. Isn’t that what they’re doing? And they’re getting paid for all of those fabulous designs!

FAQs

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.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

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.
