Select furniture, fabrics and colours that will bring your designs to life. 

Learn essential techniques such as: 

• how to set up and manage your new business 

• how to manage and present your projects effectively 

• how to find clients and interact with them 

• how to market your business 

• how to establish relationships with suppliers for best advantage and to enjoy professional discounts 

All the tools you will need to begin are provided. We even give you samples of business stationery! Supplementary video material is provided on DVD, and computer software on CD 

Best of all, your own personal tutor will guide you through the course whilst you study at your own pace, at home. 

Our comprehensive, brand new Decor School Interior Decorating 2007 course really does cover everything you need to succeed! 

Many of our students would like to go into business when they finish the course, but lack the financial business knowledge. We have therefore made available two extra courses that supplement the comprehensive finance section in the Decor school course. 

The first is called Finance For Decorators, and concentrates only on the financial and bookkeeping aspects of running a small business. It's divided into 8 modules. 

The second is the very comprehensive Practical Business Course which concentrates on every aspect of planning, opening, and running a small business on a day-to-day basis. It is divided into 20 modules. 

Please note that you would not choose both, as Finance For Decorators is a subset of the Practical Business Course - you would choose one or the other
