I was recently at a couple of secondary open evenings with my son, and it blew my mind how far CS education has come. The only thing that seemed slightly lacking was anything around tooling and unit testing, TDD being a nice segway between theoretical and practical application imo.
I strongly believe in a few years the current "${library} experience === cushy fintech job" environment will be completely reversed, as the number of strong developers grows and the self-taught guys like myself that have been in industry for ages die off.
More importantly I suspect the demand for more practical, industry recognized vocational CS qualifications will grow.
