What do they need shell access for? can't you script something up so telnet/ssh to a menu? Also, perhaps chrooting ftp to /home/projects/www would be a good idea? If they do need shell access, try putting "cd /home/projects/www" into their .bash_profile, that should take them to the directory on login.
