I wonder whether it would be better to provide employers in tech money to train <target group> directly, on the condition that X% of them retain full-time employment of at least $XXX,000 for five years following "graduation".
The idea is to align incentives -- the employers get to try vets, and if they succeed, everyone gets more money.
- drawnwren 9y agoCode schools are not very conducive to retention, especially not on a 5 year scale. Keep in mind most boot camp grads are going to front end jobs at mid-early stage startups.
- grogenaut 9y agoIs that the san francisco view of what code camp people do or the US wide reality. When we're talking about a US wide problem we should be really looking at US wide solutions because, like it or not, a lot of people don't want to live in San Fran. If code camps really only supply SF Startups with front end coders I don't think that's worthy of a national program.
