C.I.D. and D.T.I.
Mr. Renner serves as President and Founder of Certified Interior Decorators International, Inc. (C.I.D.), and President and Director of Decorator Training Institute (D.T.I.) and Designer Templates. The D.T.I. program was written by Ron to conform specifically to the interior decorator and is based on the elements of Interior Design and Decoration. The teachings clarify the difference between the practice of interior design and the role of the interior decorator as re-defined by Ron Renner. In the early 90's, Ron conceived the idea of educating, training and testing interior decorators for earning certification credentials and for partaking in fellowship with a professional organization established exclusively for Certified Interior Decorators.      Decorator Training Institute
