Are there any correspondence or online courses in interior design?
There are some courses available but you should proceed with caution. Correspondence programs, as a rule, are not recognized as a sufficient or credible form of education in the interior design field. You may get an introduction to interior design, but correspondence programs most likely will not provide you with the credentials you will need to take the NCIDQ Examination, be licensed in most states or provinces, or be hired by most interior design firms. A few credible four-year schools are offering online programs, but it will be worthwhile to find out their graduation rates and where their graduates are employed.
