CERTIFIED INTERIOR DECORATORS INTERNATIONAL

Founded in 1997 by distinguished interior designer Ron Renner, Certified Interior Decorators International (C.I.D.) is dedicated to individuals who have the talent and seek educational training and the required testing to become recognized as "Certified" professionals in the interior decorating industry. In the early 90's Mr. Renner conceived the idea and concept of "CERTIFYING" interior decorators since there was much confusion at that time about the difference between designers and decorators and the educational requirements for either. CID became a dual purpose professional membership association and "the" certifying body to accredit and certify interior decorators for the first time in history. Fulfill your dream, join the successful ranks of Certified Interior Decorators now.

How do I qualify? Certified Interior Decorators International has partnered with educators to provide C.I.D. approved and accredited programs by direct mail or online allowing potential members to qualify to apply for professional credentials as a “Certified Interior Decorator”. Over the past years C.I.D. has become the consumers choice for a decorating professional. CERTIFIED INTERIOR DECORATORS INTERNATIONAL (C.I.D.) serves as a dual purpose CERTIFYING BODY and PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIP ASSOCIATION.

WHAT OTHER PROFESSIONALS ARE SAYING:

As NCIDQ and the professional associations IIDA, ASID, ICD and IDEC have been working to raise the bar for the interior design profession, other associations have been focusing on establishing credentials for the decoration industry. Any industry that decides to create guidelines and raise the professionalism of its industry deserves commendation – and the decoration community deserves no less.

“I appreciate the information you sent and feel that it is important for all our showrooms to be aware of your association and the principles Certified Interior Decorators International stands for. Many of our showrooms are frustrated with clients who claim to be decorators and come in expecting the showroom personnel to do their job. Showrooms would be much more willing to work with a decorator who identifies themselves as a “Certified Interior Decorator (C.I.D.). Dallas Decorative Center, Dallas, Texas
