Interior Design Academy of Ireland Avaliações 

Very helpfull course, instructor and tutor, i learned alot and looking forward to apply what i learned in real life

Great learning experience, thoroughly enjoyed the course. Highly recommend it.

I find home study great as I can do it in my own time and if I ever need help it is very easy to contact my tutor and they usually reply the same day!

Great service. Friendly and accommodating tutors.

Disappointing !!!!!
If you are looking for real follow-up and constructive learning I recommend you avoid this academy. You risk wasting your time and money.

The teachers are very responsive and very helpful. They help guide you and give feedback on how you can improve.

Helpful Tutors! I am taking the course strictly online, the tutors I've worked with are always there to help clarify any questions.

Before I started the course, I had a great passion for interior design and decided to take up a course which would help me to gain professional insights into the industry. I decided on IDAI as I feel it provides the best level of certification. I found that the tutors were very helpful throughout the assignments. I found the course very interesting and informative. The biggest positive of the course was that it was delivered online and was very flexible as I could do it in my own time. Even though I found some assignments quite challenging since I was a novice to the industry, I still would highly recommend the course as the standard of the course is very high and the accreditation is highly recognised in Ireland.

The technical training is not sufficient for the lesson requirements.
There is no way to speak to a tutor if there are questions.
There are a handful of 2-minute videos available which barely scratch the surface of the knowledge required to complete an assignment.
The group training sessions are offered monthly, and sometimes not at all.
There is no way of securing additional support if the student needs extra help.
All of this amounts to so much wasted time for the student. It is not reasonable to succeed in this program with no previous experience as they irresponsibly advertise. There is simply not enough training or support and it makes the process extremely painful and frustrating.

Lots of support from tutors when doing the online course.

I started this course in 2019. It is now 2025 and I am on my 20th assignment. It has been a hard slog. I'm not going to lie. Every person that I started this course with pulled out throughout the years, I am the only one left of my group. I have struggled through each assignment on my own. I felt the support had been really lacking. The assignments are very vague and not much guidance was given. I was told they are subjective, This is a diploma course you need to work on your own. You should be independent etc... A few people asked me whether I would recommend the course and I said no.
I am a stubborn person and when I decide to do something I like to see it through and not give up easily. Were the assignments Are difficult. I worked hard and self-taught where it was needed. The classes do not coincide with the assignments as you are giving one class after another where the assignments could take 50 hours which let's face it, who has 50 hours in a week to give to an assignment if you are working full-time and a parent.
I decided to pay the extra to extend the course and I have started it again in September 2024, luckily I had two assignments which I had completed during the summer to submit, which gave me a chance to move on to the next assignment fairly quickly. It is now January 2025 and I am starting assignment 20. I received a new tutor in September which I have to say has had a very positive effect on my outlook. Her name is Catarina and her feedback is always positive and helpful. She is very prompt to reply which I am not used to at all because throughout the years I would have to wait days for an answer to an email and assignments would take weeks. I know the college have updated some of their policies and procedures and it seems to be for the better. My experience since I have returned in September has been positive. Catarina replies quite quickly thank god and her advice is always straight to the point which is what I need. So thank you to her, the new procedure of submitting for feedback and then submitting for grading is working much better. Saying all that I have learned a lot throughout the last 5 years but that's thanks to the hard work I've put into the assignments and research.

I am taking part in the bachelor’s degree,
Originally, I did not enjoy the course I found you were left alone a lot of the time without help or guidance or due dates. I originally started in person classes and switched to online classes.
I feel the college has undergone some changes recently as there is many new features available to monitor and keep track. The tutors are also much more attentive.
From my personal experience up to this point I would not have recommended this course however if these positive changes keep occurring and are maintained my mind would be changed. As it is a lot of money to not feel completely satisfied in your education.

My experience completing the Higher National Certificate (HNC) so far has been positive and effective.

While the course is a lot more comprehensive and time consuming than I thought. The assignments are thorough, practical and relevant. I’ve already seen benefits in my professional development. The tutors’ quick response with concise guidance to queries makes studying remotely easier.

IDAI and the HNC’s professional reputation is consistent across the industry. From any conversation I’ve had with professional designers as I start to build my industry relationships. It increases my confidence to finish the course as soon as I can and start my new career.

The feed back and guidance is very efficient and helpful at all times

Helpful, fair, positive and constructive feedback. Really happy.

I'm learning so much. Classes interesting and educational. Support and encouragment from on-line tutor invaluable. I've a lot to learn but believe that if I put the work in, it'll do it.

Quick answers of my coordinator and the administrative staff when I have doubts.

The lessons are very informative and easy to follow. I found the assignments interesting and enjoyable to work on and my tutor was always positive with feedback. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in interior design.

The tutors are very helpful and always respond immediately with any queries you may have.
Feedback on assignments always positive and helpful hints on how to improve.
