The Interior Design & Decoration course offered by LISAA Paris is a professional retraining course. It will enable you to acquire the skills necessary for a professional approach to interior design. You will learn how to conceive a project and present it to the various parties involved. You will also learn how to implement it and to organise your future projects so that they can be carried out in the best possible conditions. Finally, you will be supported in your new professional project and in the creation of your agency.

Presentation of the course

LISTENING, DESIGNING AND ORGANIZING

The Interior Design & Decoration course lasts 9 months (5 months of classes and 3 months of internship/work experience).

Entry is based on an interview to determine the candidate's motivation and the seriousness of their professional project. A level of training equivalent to 3 years of post-baccalaureate studies is necessary to apply for this course.

You will learn computer graphics skills during the course and will master Photoshop, Indesign and Sketchup. A crash course in Autocad is also included in the programme.

Resolutely pragmatic, the course follows the chronology of the 3 stages of an interior design project: Listen, Design and Organise. In addition to the necessary theoretical knowledge that will be taught, a field approach will be favoured: on the reality of life on the building site and on the skills necessary for this entrepreneurial exercise that will be yours.

A BLENDED LEARNING COURSE

Delivered using innovative methodology and tools, the teaching combines online and face-to-face learning. Group dynamics and face-to-face communication are essential. Flexibility of organisation and limited travel time are also essential.

AN INTENSE RHYTHM AND VARIED AND PROFESSIONALIZING COURSE CONTENTS

You will be trained in the design of a project from A to Z through all the knowledge necessary for its realization:

  • Client brief, survey, technical and regulatory context, assignment contract...
  • Sketch, rough draft, mood board and trend analysis
  • Technical drawings and plans, materials and ERP specifications
  • Technical, budgetary, administrative and HR management of the site

You will learn this profession in close contact with all building professionals (craftsmen and building contractors, architects, interior designers and decorators, suppliers, insurers and lawyers, etc.) by spending time in the field with them. You will have the keys to project management: technical, legal and human execution of the site management. 

We will also accompany you on the entrepreneurial part of your project: agency creation, communication (public speaking seminar with the Cours Florent), and leadership (conflict management, talking about money...).

  

INDIVIDUALISED MONITORING OF YOUR PROFESSIONAL PROJECT

Benefiting from all the resources, knowledge and skills of a recognised school of interior design, you will also benefit from individualised monitoring of your project. 

FIELD EXPERIENCE

  • A week's work experience on a craftsman's site to learn about their daily life, the reality of the field and how to communicate with them.
  • 2 to 3 months of work experience in an interior design agency

A VALIDATION OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE

  • A learning process and project mode
  • A presentation in front of a jury of professionals
