Working with us
DesignSense is a Marshmallow.Projects partner product, and it is built to be worked with rather than only sold to. If you run a studio, an agency, a school, or a team that hires the people we teach, there is probably something here worth talking about.
A Marshmallow.Projects partner product
Every certificate and License carries a code anyone can check at /verify, without an account and without contacting us. If you hire designers or developers, that is a credential you can confirm in seconds rather than take on trust.
Courses run with real labs, human grading, and a proctored final. Schools and training teams that want a cohort taken through one of them — or a subject added to the catalogue — are the reason the roadmap form exists.
Workshops, office hours, and talks appear on the public calendar alongside exam dates and cohort starts. If you would like to host or co-run one, say so and we will find a date.
Marshmallow.Projects is the business infrastructure company DesignSense is built with, and it builds the engineering side of the curriculum. Coding work is reviewed against the same standards it applies to its client projects, and what you build ships under its badge — so your portfolio carries a real engineering brand, not a completion badge. Certified students go on to Marshmallow.Projects as interns directly.
The pathway
Earn the certificate and your internship place with Marshmallow.Projects is guaranteed.
It applies to certificates from qualifying courses — each course page says whether it is one. You apply directly; there is no recruiter screen to get past first, because the certificate is the screening step and it has already been done by the time you apply. Places open on a rolling basis as capacity allows, so how soon you start varies — but whether you get a place does not.
Strong interns may be offered a permanent role. That is a possibility, not a second guarantee, and it is worth saying plainly which of the two it is.
The License is a step beyond an internship place. Licence holders may be hired directly rather than taken on as interns; for a role in their niche they are shortlisted ahead of other applicants, every time; and they sit on a curated list Marshmallow.Projects draws from first when hiring for that profession.
DesignSense passes Marshmallow.Projects a roster of certified students and licence holders, so they know you are coming. You should also reach out yourself once you are certified. The channel to message is not published here yet — ask us and you will get the current one.
The certificate has to be genuinely earned: course completed, labs passed, and the final passed at or above the course pass mark. The pathway starts at certification, not at enrolment.
