Can I earn a certificate from these courses?

Unlike many other online resources, we are a real school offering certificates of completion as part of our licensed Designer Development Program. Students that complete our certificate courses with a passing grade will receive a certificate.

How is the class live if it’s online?

We believe that students need real-time feedback, especially when learning online. We’ve built weekly live interactions with our Made Instructors into each program course.

Do I have to be in the certificate program to take the certificate courses?

No. Earning a fashion certificate is just one of the features of taking a certificate course. You don’t have to be enrolled in the program to take these courses. Hobbyists are more than welcome to join!

Who should take these courses?

We've created these online courses for aspiring fashion designers, sewing/design hobbyists, and dabblers looking to gain some new skills. We offer courses for all levels and welcome beginners to our community.

What tools/equipment do I need?

We recommend that students have a tablet, laptop, or desktop computer, as well as a smart phone to upload photos of their weekly classwork and homework assignments. Additional course specific supply lists will be provided with each course.

What will my schedule look like for the Certificate courses?

Our certificate courses will have a weekly drip schedule that will release that week's lessons, classwork submission prompts, and homework submission prompts. Students will then have access to weekly live office hours via Google Hangouts to speak with their instructor for questions and real-time feedback. Students will be expected to submit their assignments by midnight the evening before the next lesson release.

What will my schedule look like for Hobbyist projects and workshops?

Once you purchase our online workshops and hobbyist projects, your schedule is your own. You will not receive a grade, so you can complete each project at your leisure.

Is Made Institute a real school?

Yes! We are licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education State Board of Private Licensed Schools. Our curriculum has been scrutinized and approved by the state to ensure our students are getting a quality education.

Does Made Institute offer a degree?

No. While we are a Private Licensed School, Made Institute is not accredited. We have found that many of our students are not looking for a degree, but rather an expedited education that will get them closer to their fashion design goals more quickly.

How long will I have access to the course materials?

Our Certificate Courses enrollment last for 90 days from the day you purchase the course. You will have access to the lessons through on-demand videos and weekly live sessions. Our hobbyist projects and workshops will be available for 1 year from the day you sign up.
