Important note for interior designers registered in the state of Texas:
All continuing education courses, including the Keynote, have been cumulatively reviewed and approved by the Interior Design Continuing Education Council [IDCEC], the organization that serves as a central entity for the sharing of interior design continuing education information, approval, and registration. The four IDCEC member organizations – ASID [American Society of Interior Designers], IDC [Interior Designers of Canada], IDEC [Interior Design Educators Council], & IIDA [International Interior Design Association] - work together to approve continuing education courses. As a result, courses approved through one of these organizations are approved for all these organizations. Those classes that count as CEPHs - that is, those that are designated as as Health / Safety / Welfare [HSW] and count toward the required eight (8) hours per year - are designated as such below.

Please know that in the state of Texas, it ultimately is the discretion of the Texas Board of Architectural Examiners [TBAE] – the regulatory agency that oversees the examination, registration, and professional regulation of interior designers, as well as architects and landscape architects – to deem a course as HSW, not IDCEC. To download a TBAE CEPH log sheet to keep track of your continuing education hours, please visit the TBAE website: www.tbae.state.tx.us.
