IL SB0335

Renames the "Interior Design Title Act" to the "Registered Interior Designers Act" and updates related terminology throughout the statute.

Changes the education and experience requirements for interior designer registration, including adjustments to full-time experience thresholds and allowing applicants 2 years (instead of 3) after filing to pass the required examination.

Adds new grounds for discipline of registered interior designers, including aiding others in violations, failure to respond to Department requests within 30 days, and physical illness affecting ability to practice.

Updates references to the accrediting body from "Foundation for Interior Design Education Research" to "Council for Interior Design Accreditation" and its successor entities.

Modifies the foreign applicant reciprocity provision to allow registration when another jurisdiction's requirements are "substantially equal to or greater than" Illinois requirements, eliminating the previous two-part test.

Adds registered interior designers to the list of professions eligible for certificates of relief from disabilities under the Unified Code of Corrections and to those who can provide services under the Mechanics Lien Act.
