The IDEX\u00ae California exam was first developed by CCIDC\u00a0 in 2008, based on the 2007 California Building Code (Title 24) which became effective January 1, 2008.<\/p>\n
California Building Codes are updated every three years and become effective on January 1st of the following year.<\/p>\n
When the 2010 CBC was published (effective Jan. 1, 2011),\u00a0 it was determined by CCIDC there were no significant changes that impacted Certified Interior Designers, so there were no changes made to the IDEX\u00ae\u00a0 exam.<\/p>\n
The 2013 CBC became effective Jan. 1, 2014, and the IDEX\u00ae exam is, as of this writing, being reviewed by CCIDC for code changes that may impact Certified Interior Designers.\u00a0 The exam will be updated (if needed) and go through a revalidation process.<\/p>\n
As of today, August 29, 2014, we do not know whether the October 2014 IDEX\u00ae exam will be changed. However, our prep class is currently being updated with 2013 code handouts, links and other relevant information.<\/p>\n
