BEFORE READING FURTHER, SEE BELOW TESTIMONIALS FROM SOME OF OUR STUDENTS
Interior design is very attractive and appealing to the eyes. I love the fact that I help clients turn their dreams of having a great space to reality, thereby creating spaces that suit their personalities. Also, I feel elated and satisfied to see them excited at how their home looks. It has also helped me to meet different people from different works of life. I learnt all it takes to transform a space from scratch to finish. I also learnt the business and practical aspect of interior design. I have been able to practice different skills such as; creativity and attention to details, colour, communication, understanding of spatial balance, budgeting and time management, above all, how to be patient in dealing with clients and artisans. I would recommend JSAID to anyone who wishes to pursue a career in interior design because they offer training and services that are way more than the money you invest, and they also make you a better person at the end of the program.
NNEKA MEKWUNYE
CEO Jayne Interiors
Taking this course was such a great delight. No bit of regret. The practical sessions were indeed eye opening. I love the fact that most of the sessions were interactive. Trust me, I learnt a whole lot. For everyone who's desiring to pursue interior design as a career/profession, JSAID has you covered. Don't just get certified, get professional and JSAID Is the right plug.
BRIDGET ICHABOR
CEO B-Dynamix Interiors
My story started but was not completed until i met JSAID, JSAID taught me and put me through all the INTERIOR design elements that has helped me so far in my career, JSAID is one of the top leading INTERIOR schools here in lagos. I'm happy I'm a part of the family. Thanks to all my Facilitators especially Mrs Jennifer. God bless and increase you . My company is doing great thanks to the knowledge that was acquired from JSAID.
ONKE OLAGUNJU
CEO Rolek Interiors R
The interior design training received at Jenniez School of African Interior Design (JSAID), despite being an online program, was well structured and was a good foundation for someone like me, who had no prior experience in interior design. There was room to assess our level of understanding for each module. The school helped me get a placement at Lighthouse Interior designs for my 3 months internship. The internship was quite an eye opener, especially because I got to work with a growing firm. I learnt a lot during this period. Although it was a little bit challenging at the beginning, I got to adapt with time. Overall, I like to say it was a wonderful experience even as I keep working towards improving myself in this field. I am truly grateful for the opportunity.
DUROJAIYE AJIKE NENE
It has been nothing short of amazing, fulfilling and definitely life changing. JSAID paved a way in making me fulfill what I thought or felt was just a hobby into a realization that it’s something I want to take up as more than a hobby. I’m currently interning with one of the leading interior design companies in Nigeria and I honestly don’t think I’d have gotten this far if not for training and internship opportunities provided by JSAID. And it doesn’t just end here, I had the opportunity of being retained as a full staff of this company and I know I have a long standing relationship with others in this line of work just because JSAID made sure the training didn’t end in the classrooms or at the interning stage I am entirely grateful and I hope more people get to experience this because it is the deal.
