A story I know first hand:
An unemployed PHP web developer struggled for 2 years to get a job. She had taken time off to have children. In that time PHP had acquired pariah status.
I suggested that she do a Udacity "front end developer" course. A thousand dollars and 3 months later, she finished the course, found it valuable and obtained a job. She was promoted to project manager/leader a few months later.
