The SDP's mission to provide certification and continuing education opportunities to business owners in the interior decorating, interior design, interior redesign and real estate staging industry.

The conference is open to anyone working in these fields and/or with a passion for decorating.

Attendees will receive SDP continuing education units. The SDP is the only decorating association that is an authorized provider of CEUs by the International Association of Continuing Education and Training.

While we do not offer a full-fledged trade show, we do seek vendors/sponsors who will have table top exhibits. This is a great opportunity for attendees to learn about products and services that will help them run a successful business.
