      Interior Design Educators Council (IDEC)

      Full‐time educators felt that it was necessary to establish an organization that specifically met their needs. Thus, in 1963 educators formed the IDEC.⁵

      The IDEC mission is the advancement of interior design education, scholarship, and service.⁶ Most members of IDEC are full‐time faculty members. Full‐time interior design educators who have also received appropriate interior design education and have professional work experience may become professional‐level members. Many are also professional or educator members of ASID, IIDA, and other associations.

      IDEC is responsible for the publication of the Journal of Interior Design, a refereed journal. It is the only scholarly journal of the profession. The journal provides a mechanism for research materials to be widely distributed to educators and interested professionals.

      For information on the complete requirements for membership in IDEC, visit www.idec.org.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

      1 Elizabeth graduated from an accredited four‐year program in interior design and has been working in the industry for three years at an office furnishings dealership. She has been in one of the professional associations since being a student and has recently taken the NCIDQ examination. Through a relative, Elizabeth had the opportunity to meet one of the state legislators who will be on the committee to review her state coalition's interior design legislative proposal. This legislator expressed to Elizabeth her skepticism about the necessity for legislation of “decorating.” As if you were Elizabeth, frame a response to this legislator on why interior design legislation is necessary to protect the public.
