LEED Design Education Fund
AwardsThe LEED Design Education Fund (previously the Keilhauer Sustainable Design Education Fund) supports our IIDA members practicing sustainable design strategies. Interior designers that are LEED Green Associate or LEED AP certified demonstrate to clients and employers that they are dedicated to incorporating environmental sustainability and the health and safety of occupants into their practice.
The LEED Design Education Fund will award exam reimbursement funds to selected recipients who have completed and passed the LEED Green Associate or LEED AP exam. This award is open twice annually, in the spring and fall.
