I couldn’t have made a better choice for a continued education program. Heritage School of Interior Design set me up for success in the interior design industry as I moved into a new chapter and my second career. I highly recommend HSID for anyone seeking a fast track to becoming an industry expert!

I am an industry veteran and I have recently started a major remodel on my career. I have always enjoyed supporting the design students at Heritage School of Design on their journey into the industry and now I am so grateful to have them as a resource for all the things I don’t know about running my own business.  It isn’t just about the pretty surface! And their new space in Portland is absolutely perfect for creative learning.

I loved my time at Heritage. I am starting a new career, and as an Engineer, I knew I did not want to attend another 4 year program. Upon finding Heritage, I knew it would focus on the more industry specific components I would need to succeed. The school focuses on the actual work you would be doing with clients and contractors, rather than simply the science of design. This course is for those who are already tech savvy, and need the fundamental concepts to get themselves started in the hands-on world of Interior Design, rather than Interior Decorating!

Huge thank you to the wonderful Staff and Educators! YOU ARE ALL AMAZING!

I had a really positive experience at Heritage School of Interior Design and would recommend it to anyone serious about getting into the interior design field. The program helped me build a strong foundation and, more importantly, gave me real connections in the industry. What stood out most was the community—they support you during the program and continue to stay connected long after graduation. I’ve stayed involved with HSID even after starting my own business, and it’s been a great resource. While there are cheaper programs out there, investing in myself through Heritage has been 100% worth it.

Fantastic experience from the very beginning, with both a tour of the beautiful school space, and clear advising from Angie Morse. Excited to start. Thanks Angie!

I just graduated from the Saturday Fundamentals program. Right after I started going to Heritage, I got hired to design a restaurant. I can tell you that the education from Heritage is truly applicable to the industry and job as an interior designer and I experienced that first hand. After completion, I have more confidence as a designer, sales person, and speaker. Teacher Janis is an amazing human being. Her enthusiasm for design is infectious. She has such a vast and in-depth knowledge of furniture pieces, history, vocabulary that she could teach a whole segment on that alone. She makes learning fun and was a resource for me while I went along on my real life project. If you are fortunate enough to spend time around Stephanie, the owner of the school, you will see that she has much knowledge to impart - in design but also in marketing. She truly cares about her students and is showing that by meeting with me post graduation to help me make a killer portfolio for job applications. Not a lot of business owners would take time away to do that. If you've been considering, I would recommend taking the plunge.

One note: if you do the Saturday course, there are only a few opportunities for vendor visits - which are really fun. This is because the Saturday course is a bit shorter. The weekday course has Thursdays dedicated to vendor visits so if that is important to you then the weekday course is better in that regard. However, the school makes the Thursday visits available to ALL students, so I was able to make it to some of those which was great.

Recommendations: Take AutoCAD alongside your Fundamentals course. It is going to make your final project SO much easier and save you loads of time PLUS it's a valuable and hirable skill.

Heritage was one of the greatest educational experiences I’ve had thus far.

The administration was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout my year attending   They worked with me to organize and register for  my final classes before I gave birth to my daughter. They also allowed me to zoom in for my final portfolio presentation due to having a 2 week old at home. I cannot thank Amy White and Nicole Hawkins enough for all their help while I was attending.

But the biggest asset to Heritage is Janis Howard. Saturday fundamentals could never be what it is without her. She absolutely pours her heart and soul into her students. Her vast knowledge and connections to the interior design community is a huge benefit to her students. I felt confident leaving this class with a full set of tools in my belt. And knowing I would be able to reach out to Janis for anything I would need in the future. She is not only a one of a kind instructor, but a kind and thoughtful human being. She brought together a group of 10 women who to this day still celebrate major milestones with one another.

I have and will continue to recommend the masters certificate program at Heritage.

My experience, at heritage has been nothing short of life changing. The instructors and the staff truly care about their students, not only in the classroom but about their future. The curriculum is current and relevant to the industry, and equips you with everything you need for what ever Avenue you decide to peruse in the design industry. At Heritage it didn’t feel like I was just going to class to pass and get through it, I felt as though I was part of a MOVEMENT and supported every step of the way. I’ve gained incredible knowledge, confidence, a second career as well as lifetime friends. If I could give heritage 10 stars I would! So grateful for all the doors that Heritage has opened for me.

Just finished the 12 week fundamentals course, and I love this school! You make so many great friendships and connections, and the teacher, Angie, is the most supportive person I've ever met. Thank you Heritage!
