Every student who completes the No Black Boxes curriculum and submits a final project earns a certificate. The strongest projects earn skill badges — a growing collection that proves what you can actually build.
The same process applies to all three tracks — Build a Brain, No Black Boxes Intensive, and Experimental Neuroscience Bootcamp. Build something real. Show your work. Earn your certificate.
Every student who completes the course and submits a final project receives an official No Black Boxes certificate — regardless of track. The certificate includes your name, your track, the date of completion, and is signed by the No Black Boxes teaching team.
Think of them like scout badges — earned, not given. Every certificate holder is considered. The strongest projects earn additional skill badges awarded by the No Black Boxes team, each recognising a specific area of demonstrated expertise.
Badges are being developed in collaboration with research institutes, labs, and companies — to ensure they reflect skills that are genuinely valued in the real world.
We are working with research institutes, labs, and companies to ensure that No Black Boxes badges reflect skills that are genuinely valued — not just by us, but by the people who might one day hire or collaborate with our students.
"The best projects are shared with our global network of research institutes, labs, and companies. Outstanding work gets noticed — and outstanding students get connected."
Order the kit, follow the curriculum, submit your project. Every completion earns a certificate. The best work earns badges — and gets noticed by the right people.
