Looks very similar to Holberton School - https://www.holbertonschool.com/ https://www.holbertonschool.com/ - launched 2 years ago, it's also 17% after students get a job. Their curriculum covers low-level programming, high-level programming and system engineering. They have a pretty good track record so far, students finding opportunities at NASA, LinkedIn, Apple, Dropbox, Docker.
- austenallred 9y agoYa, holberton is solid. It would be difficult or impossible for most of our students to move to San Francisco unpaid for two years.
- bipbip 9y agoThey get paid pretty fast though at Holberton, as they start their first internship after 6 months in.
- austenallred 9y agoYa I've got nothing against Holberton, it's just not a model that works for the vast majority of our students.

NASA is doing very little direct hiring right now, certainly not hiring software engineers without a bachelors degree. It's entirely possible to get hired as a contractor working at NASA, but that's really not the same thing.
