• Certified Interior Designers should sign up as “registered interior designers” and should enter California (CA) the state(s) abbreviation in that field, and then your Certification number where it asks for “registration number” in that field.
   
• If “none” is entered in any of these fields their  system will recognize that as an acceptable entry. (They do need accurate phone, fax , and e-mail addresses to insure that a certificate reaches them.)
   
• Their system is simple. Once someone creates and account with them they can select a course. Read the course material, and take  a short quiz at the end. They send a certificate of completion to everyone that scores better than a 70% on the quiz. This certificate is used to self-report the CE credits to CCIDC.
