International differences in the required an Interior Designer
In many countries, the title _Interior Designer_ refers back to the skills and remit with the items the UK call an _Interior Decorator. The confusion
refers to protection of title. In Europe, an Interior Architect describes a similar remit and skill of any British interior designer, but as
_Architect_ is usually a protected title in the UK it can't be used to describe an internal designer. Descriptions on the role and skills of interior
designers differ all over the world, unlike those of an Architect, Lawyer or Doctor in which the title is clearly identified.
SBID aimed to clarify the role and definition by identifying the different sector specialisms within decor that require specific compliance laws. A
clear knowledge of roles and obligations is core on the teaching structures and course content which trains new professionals. SBID will continue to
work towards title recognition for the Interior Designer in the UK.
How does an Interior Designer become qualified?
In the UK, everyone can describe themselves just as one _interior designer_. Therefore for consumer protection, separation and distinction on the
masses of hobbyists is key. The SBID member status denotes an enhanced volume of professional qualification and work experience beyond university
education.
Designers can join at any stage within their career and progress from the membership levels to get the highest degree of practice for an SBID
Accredited professional. SBID also accredits university course content as fit for professional practice, offering students at any recognised home
design course free student membership. In 2022, SBID will introduce an entry exam to measure acquired knowledge. This process adds a layer above
honours degree and work placements, supplying the first UK based-tested measure of knowledge that can further your energy to protect the title of
_design_ in Great Britain.
