Certificate Program in Interior Design and Interior Architecture
Council for interior Design Accreditation (formerly FIDER)
UC Berkeley Extension’s Certificate Program in Interior Design and Interior Architecture has been accredited at the professional Level by FIDER, the foundation for Interior Design Education Research (now called the Council for Interior Design Accreditation), since 1994. A FIDER team conducted an extensive site inspection of the Program first in 1994, again in 1997, and again in 2003 the team interviewed faculty and students, monitored classes, evaluated student work, and surveyed facilities. In its accreditation report the FIDER review team wrote: “the program has set an example of educational response to the changing needs of society”
