[REAL WORLD DESIGN WEEK]

REGISTER TODAY! DEADLINE IS SEPTEMBER 1ST

In its third year, ASID RealWorld DesignWeek is the Society's premier job shadowing program.

During RealWorld DesignWeek, November 7 - 13, 2010, ASID student members nationwide will participate in one-day shadow experiences with ASID professional and allied members, as well as Industry Partner representatives, on site at work locations. The goal is for students to observe a typical day in the life of a design professional and experience the interior design practice outside of the classroom.

In addition, the week will be book-ended by a pair of online instructional seminars-Prepare and Position-hosted by prominent guest speakers. Prepare will teach students specific professional practices, such as business etiquette and interviewing techniques, to prime them for job shadowing experiences. Position will demonstrate how to put those learned professional practices, ethics and skill sets into action and leverage participation in RealWorld DesignWeek to reach a desired career.

This innovative program exists exclusively for ASID members and the benefits to student participants are numerous, including:
-Receive an inside look at the interior design world and professional practices
-Network with your shadow day host and other industry professionals
-Expand the experience into a mentoring relationship, internship or your first job
