Nevada Interior Design Renewal

Written by Micène Fontaine | Mar 26, 2018 3:30:00 PM

Nevada interior designers and residential interior designers are required to complete 8 hours of Continuing Education every year.

  • CE Requirement:  8 hours of Continuing Education Units (CEU), all of which must address Health, Safety & Welfare (HSW) issues. 2 of the 8 hours must be code-related
  • Renewal Date:  December 31, every year.
  • CE Cycle:  Annual - Running from January 1 through December 31.
  • Acceptable Coursework:  A minimum of 4 CEUs must be earned in structured setting (e.g. seminar, internet or correspondence course). A maximum of 4 CEUs may be earned in self-directed setting (activity related to the registrant's profession but not designed and systematically presented as a continuing education activity e.g. publication of an article or book, making a professional or technical presentation, being an active member or officer of professional organization, teaching, etc.)
  • Reporting of Credits:  Providers cannot report continuing education credits earned to the Nevada State Board of Architecture, Interior Design and Residential Design. Registrants are responsible for tracking courses and maintaining supporting documentation in case of an audit. Design Arts Seminars reports credits electronically whenever possible.
  • Tracking of Credits:  Registrants are responsible for maintaining proof of successful completion of continuing education activities for at least 3 years. A CEU Tracking Log must be completed and sent with each registrant's renewal.  Transcripts and other back-up information will not be accepted by the board, unless a registrant is audited.
  • Audit:  A random sample of registrants will be selected for an in-depth audit to verify compliance with continuing education requirements.
  • Carry-over credits:  You may carry over a maximum of 4 CEUs earned in structured setting (see acceptable coursework above).
