I decided to bring on Vincent Woo, founder of CoderPad, who also published a couple of research articles around some questionable practices at Lambda School, now known as Bloom Institute of Technology. We had a fun, candid conversation around some of the shady parts of the coding bootcamp industry and where we thought the industry was heading, but also.. what could be done to make the industry more transparent and beneficial for students as well.
Spoiler Alert: There's a chance the coding bootcamp industry will collapse within 5 years.
