College offers diploma course in interior design

THE Connacht College of Design is offering a part-time evening diploma course in Professional Interior Design. It begins next week in Galway and bookings are being taken now. [private] This course is a combination workshop and lecture. You don't just take notes for 25 weeks â€â€ you get to work with actual design materials and fabrics, colour cards, samples and illustrations to create a professional portfolio by the end of the class. Optional field trips to trade venues are also an important part of the course. You are taught the 'whys and hows', the techniques and art of interior design, and also the business of being an interior designer. Unlike many courses that just teach the theory of design, the Connacht College of Design Diploma course prepares you to enter the professional world, giving you the skills to open your own consulting firm, or work for a company as a professional, if that is your goal. The course is booking quickly, so for further information, please phone Connacht College of Design at 091-876714. [/private]
