Become a Cerified Residential Designer. Credentials are the secret to obtaining top jobs.

Welcome to DSA, Designer Society of America, a national professional membership and certification organization, and a leading source for interior design products and services.

Residential Interior Design Offers Exciting Opportunities

 

Finding your way in the career world can be an overwhelming task. Many have found huge success and unmatched satisfaction as certified residential designers and decorators following training through the Designers Society of America (DSA). Offering a professional career training program, DSA can help direct you to your dream career.

 

Different from working in the commercial industry, residential designers and decorators are welcomed by individuals and families who invite designers into their homes and their daily lives so that the best design and décor decisions can be made for them. Often, DSA residential designers form lasting bonds with clients, taking a personal interest in creating a home that everyone in the household will enjoy for years to come.

 

Clients often share with their DSA trained and skilled designers the pride they feel in presenting their home to visitors, whether it is following design for new construction, a minor facelift or a full-fledged renovation. Providing a quality design product customized to meet the needs of the client results in return business and word of mouth referrals for our professional, certified residential designers.

 

Being a DSA Certified Residential Designer offers a wide range of opportunity for showcasing your talents. Your DSA training gives clients the reassurance that they are dealing with a professional who will deliver nothing short of perfection.

 

In addition to the training essential to obtaining certification, the ongoing support and networking opportunities available through your association with DSA will serve you well into your career. We encourage our designers to call on us for resources and support conducive to early and continued success. Our website is full of information useful to both our members and potential clients in search of a certified designer.

 

Increased visibility through DSA training helps fast track careers in that the recognition and branding from our society lend themselves to trust among clients seeking a Certified Residential Designer. The qualifications earned through completion of training at DSA are valuable to designers throughout their career, as DSA serves as a recognizable, reliable organization working to improve the training and opportunities for residential designers.

 

Offering an at home study program for the Certified Residential Designer (CRD), this course provides the information and training needed to be successful in this industry. For some, this is just the first step in their plans to eventually seek a collegiate design education. For many, the DSA program will be all the jumpstart they need to launch their successful residential design careers.

 

We are committed to helping you take your business to whole new level.
