Anyone can learn how to program without any kind of "bootcamp" or an education at a 4 years university, but it is near impossible to learn computer science without a formal education. Bootcamps are just wrong in my opinion, unless you are in it for the money from the current tech hype. I believe that most people need a formal education (working on problem sets, problem solving with algorithm paradigms, formally learn about NP-completeness) to do any kind of real software engineering, very few can do it by themselves without guidance.
