You’re invited to Distinguish Yourself! Take the next step in elevating your career and become a CHID.
The Certified Healthcare Interior Designer® (CHID) credential is the industry’s recognized indicator of knowledge and proficiency in healthcare interior design principles and a designer’s commitment to the profession.
The CHID credential is the only certification demonstrating to employers, clients and colleagues that your experience in healthcare interior design distinguishes your qualifications.
