ABOUT THE NCIDQ EXAM:
1. Interior Design Fundamentals Exam (IDFX)--100 multiple-choice questions designed to assess your knowledge of building systems, construction standards and design application.
2. Interior Design Professional Exam (IDPX)--150 multiple-choice questions
that assess your knowledge of building systems, codes, professional practice and project coordination.
3. Practicum (PRAC)--A full-day exam that includes seven unique exercises
that focus on space planning, lighting design, egress, life safety, restroom

Pass all three sections of the exam in order to complete the NCIDQ Examination and become NCIDQ Certified.
These three sections can be done in a five-year window, which begins after you
