Advanced Certificate in Interior Design

You have a good eye, but lack the technical skills to work as a professional.

🤔

You love putting rooms together, but worry you lack the formal knowledge of colour theory, space planning, and materials to charge clients.

📄

You're not sure how to set fees, write a client agreement, or manage tradespeople and suppliers in Australia.

🤯

Turning an idea into a detailed plan with floor plans, lighting schedules, and material boards feels overwhelming.

A different approach

Learn practical design skills, your way.

Every lesson includes text, audio, video, and visual slides, so you can learn in the format that works for you. Your personal AI tutor is always available in each lesson. Ask it to explain a concept, compare design styles, or give you feedback on an idea.

Your AI tutor, on every lesson

Unlike other online courses where you're left reading slides alone, every lesson comes with an AI tutor built in. It explains concepts in plain language, answers your follow-up questions, quizzes you to check understanding, and walks you through real scenarios.

You
I'm not sure how to charge for my first project. What's the difference between an hourly rate and a fixed fee?
AI Tutor
An hourly rate is good for projects where the work is hard to predict. A fixed fee is often preferred by clients as it gives them budget certainty. Many designers use a combination, such as a fixed fee for the design phase and hourly for project management. This should all be outlined in your letter of agreement. Would you like me to explain the key items to include in that document?
