People who go to coding boot camps often get coding jobs. Many coding schools deliver what they promise their students, which is a job in return for their fee and the student's hard work. It's silly that VA benefits can be used for intensive short courses in for-profit plumbing and truck-driving schools but not coding schools. This is a screwup that needs to be fixed. The VA has screwups in it. SNAFU (situation normal, all f---d up) is a military acronym. They fix SNAFUs when they get pressure from Congress. Of course there's a history of sleazeball entrepreneurs figuring out how to get paid with VA benefits in return for bad education. That's no good. It was already happening at the dawn of the computer age, and it's happening now. It needs to be dealt with, ongoing. There's also a history of people being trained for work without the aptitude to do it well. That's also a waste. It happens in plumbing and truck driving too. Making it hard for veterans to use their benefits to learn to code is not the way to deal with these problems. Plus our industry can use lots more skilful hard working people. You could write to your congresspeople and bring this article to their attention. I did.
