Hello Everyone!
We had a great Leadership Conference in Boston and we're so excited about much that we learned - specifically how to better serve you, our valuable members.
As you all know we are in our CEU reporting year, and while I was sitting in one of the conference sessions, National announced a fun contest they're holding... A race to see which chapter completes and reports their CEUs first! I want to congratulate you because out of 48 chapters, we are in 17th place! I also want to mention that when they announced that Alabama was currently in first place, the board members from that chapter were at our table. What were the chances? Anyhow, as nice as those ladies were, I would like to challenge you all to help me do what I told them we would do... beat them! The deadline is October 31st and with your help we can do this. Oh! The winners get a nice cash prize to have a chapter CEU; how cool is that? If you've completed your CEUs please make sure they're reported by going onto the IDCEC site at www.idcec.org . If you haven't yet finished them, we hope you'll join us in this effort to win this race. Good Luck to us!

Message from EP Chair....
|
July is a time to welcome summertime, celebrating our nations' birthday, and sharing time with family and friends. For recent graduates it is also a time to relax after all the years of hard work and to start thinking about your new career. As you head out into the work force keep a few tips in mind for what interior design firms are looking for. "For technical design skills firms want to see floor plans, elevations/specifications, AutoCAD/CAD drawings, reflected ceiling plans, lighting/electrical plans, and perspective sketches. Other skills and attributes they look for are honesty, team player, professional etiquette, organizational and time management skills, strong communication skills, positive outgoing personality, and a passion and enthusiasm for design." For forty years ASID has been committed to the interior design industry and its members. "ASID is a community of people - designers, industry representatives, educators and students - committed to interior design. Through education, knowledge sharing, advocacy, community building and outreach, ASID strives to advance the interior design profession and, in the process, to demonstrate and celebrate the power of design to positively change people's lives." Becoming an Emerging Professional with ASID offers networking and career opportunities, continued education, legislative advocacy, and more. Standout from other recent grads entering the workforce by joining ASID and show your commitment to improving the industry and the lives of those you touch. Please contact me if you have any questions about becoming an emerging professional. Congratulations to all of our graduates and best wishes for your future!

By becoming an allied member, you will stay connected to the largest network of interior design professionals. Your affiliation with ASID distinguishes you to the public, your potential client base, with a mark of qualification that sets you apart from the competition.
The success of ASID is proven by its vast membership of interior designers, from the brightest newcomers to the wisest pioneers. Through their membership in ASID, students, practitioners, educators and industry representatives comprise a community of people committed to interior design. Don't miss out on the opportunity to extend those contacts - advance your membership today!
Student Advancement to Allied Membership Qualifications
Student members have a window of twelve months from their graduation date to advance to allied membership.

Only 100 applicants will be accepted and offered a ticket to attend GO PRO. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis with all accepted attendees notified by Thursday, September 10, 2015 to give attendees ample time to purchase tickets and arrange travel plans. All applicants will be evaluated for scholarships and special event opportunities. Why Apply? GO PRO attendees will be exposed to inspirational content and exclusive access to our featured project and the design and construction teams that made the project a reality. The online application is simple and will allow access to the following:
- A limited number of scholarships are available to accepted applicants. Each scholarship will cover the ticket cost (member and nonmember rate) to attend GO PRO. Scholarships will be awarded based upon the application.
- A select group of accepted applicants will be invited to an exclusive dinner with New York-based design influentials on Thursday, October 15. This experience will connect attendees directly with those leading the profession. Dinner guests will be selected based upon the application.
- All GO PRO applicants will receive a code for a complimentary CEU course on the ASID Academy (up to $50 value).
Who Should Apply? ASID is seeking applicants who have a passion and drive to develop design solutions that transform lives. GO PRO is for designers early in their careers - emerging professionals with up to five years of professional experience, and students in their final year or two of education. Applicants with a background in the built environment professions will benefit most from the GO PRO experience. Selection Process and Timeline Applications to attend GO PRO will be accepted until Thursday, August 27, 2015 will be reviewed on a rolling basis by a committee of two ASID staff members and three distinguished interior designers. Accepted attendees will be notified by mid-August 2015 in order to purchase tickets and arrange travel plans. Learn More about GO PRO 2015 Sponsors:
