Kudos goes out to our IIDA Great Plains members and supporters! It is because of YOU... your letters to legislators, participation at Design Day on the Hill, attending the subcommittee meeting and raising your voice that today we can say Senate File 289 (a bill to remove Interior Design Registration from the Iowa Code of Law) has been removed from consideration in 2019! Are you a professional designer in the State of Iowa who has passed the NCIDQ and not yet Registered? It is important now, more than ever, that those eligible become Registered, so the public has the knowledge about our unique skill set. We need your continued support to grow our list of Iowa Registered Interior Designers.
