As a professional you have probably made a commitment to lifelong learning. NCIDQ's continuing education monographs make it easy to stay on top of important topics in the interior design industry. And now, NCIDQ introduces another topic to master.
New NCIDQ Monograph is Here! 
 
Ethical Decision-Making for Designers
Ethicscover
The stakes have never been higher regarding personal and professional integrity. Ethical decision-making skills are critical to your long-term success.

If design professionals do not have coping strategies to deal with unethical conduct or are unable to demonstrate ethical behavior, a great deal of time and money will be spent dealing with misconduct and litigation rather than helping clients and consumers. Design professionals need an opportunity to discuss the ethical temptations and dilemmas they face. Deborah Long, an ethics specialist, wrote this monograph with the hope that it will provoke heated discussion and critical thinking about the dilemmas that you will face in the profession.

Ethical Decision-Making for Designers comes with a 25-question quiz that enables you to demonstrate your understanding of the concepts presented. (IDCEC approval for this monograph is pending.)

Coming soon -- Design for Senior Living monograph. Stay tuned!
