Love it! Great for the industry. I'm a former bootcamp student too and can vouch that this immersive learning model can be very effective. As an industry, we still have a long way to go but with news like this, we will become more and more trustable in the public's eyes. Like the article says - it's one thing to educate a few hundred people - can we do it at scale? Can we educate hundreds of thousands of students and get all of them jobs? We need to work together as an industry and really try to figure out what are the next best steps to move forwards. We need to diversify the technologies that we teach, curriculum, class sizes... Above all, we need to establish an amazing brand in the public eyes. That's where transparent, third-party review sites like http://www.switchup.org http://www.switchup.org can really help. Started by students, Switch is focused on producing the most cutting edge content that will help transform public perception of this industry and give it credibility. We need alumni to speak out about their experiences. Talk about the pros and cons. We need prospective students to voice their concerns. We need schools to be transparent. We need standardized definitions of hiring rates... I could go on and on... If we all work together, this industry will grow and help boost our economy. Are you ready to make the Switch? :) Shoot me a message at jonathan@switchup.org, http://www.switchup.org http://www.switchup.org
