New York, NY (PRWEB) July 11, 2013 -- The Sheffield School was re-accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council (DETC) through 2017. At the June meeting of the Distance Education and Training Council, the council members voted to accredit the school, which has been a DETC member since 2006.
The Sheffield School was founded in 1985 as a home-study interior design school. Since then, they have added courses in Feng Shui interior design, wedding and event planning, and jewelry design. The school’s mission is to provide high-quality, affordable education for creative professionals all over the world.
The Sheffield School, which is also licensed in the state of New York by the New York State Education Department, received notice of the decision to re-accredit for five years earlier this month. The accreditation covers the school and its four home-study photography courses, The Complete Course in Interior Design, The Complete Course in Wedding & Event Planning, Jewelry Design: Beading & Wire Working, and the Feng Shui Interior Design Course.
