They do ... but it is called an associates degree and takes 3-4 semesters. A one semester course is snake oil in most cases.

- bdcravens 5y agoKeep in mind that a typical course is 3 hours (in class) per week, where a bootcamp is typically 30-40 hours in class. Perhaps the expectation is that the hours difference is offloaded into "home work" but you often need to do additional work in a bootcamp as well. That assumed, given a typical course load, a "semester" of bootcamp is roughly equivalent to 2-3 semesters of college work.
- kixiQu 5y agoIf your local community college is lucky enough to have any CS at all, it may be packaged up with gen. ed. requirements (the bulk of an associate's) and designed for transfer to a 4 year college (see: https://www.clark.edu/academics/programs/dept/cse/ https://www.clark.edu/academics/programs/dept/cse/ ). This is the opposite of the vocationally focused curriculum people want from bootcamps (whether one views bootcamps as delivering it or not).
