Re:Coding Boot Camps Get the Boot: Why the Industry Is Shutt... by amrrs on Friday September 08, 2017 @01:05PM (#15201964)
What they do in bootcamps is really good, a lot better than what they do in college. But the problem is what they charge and what they promise! Most people join bootcamps because they either want to pivot or they want a better job and that comes with a huge cost in everyone's life. If people join bootcamps purely for educational purposes then bootcamps are perfect, but people join there to up themselves. Bootcamps charging huge fees fail to well defined free MooCs

I think all paid education as we know it fails to well-defined free MooCs. It's just a matter of credibility and the lack of Georgia Tech-level free MooCs at this point
