I have met very few developers that I considered *good* developers that did not also have a google window open full time for questions.<br>
<br>
I think have of IT and development skills is just being able to google good and figure out the rest on your own.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

I think part of the key is only allowing those in, who show serious<br>
potential and have done some self learning and show a true passion and<br>
raw talent.<br>
<br>
It is a lot of hours. 720 - 1200 hours. And a lot of hands on which<br>
is very beneficial. If the instructors are with the students most of<br>
the time, giving them lots of guidance along the way, then maybe.<br>
Just seems like a lot for 9 - 12 weeks.<br>
<br>
Not sure how much one can retain while drinking from a fire hose.<br>

Insane! But if you read the article carefully, the students may be<br>
going for 2-3 months, but they are working 80-100 hrs a week.<br>
<br>
If you really focused, structured it like a real job, go with 1 week<br>
sprints and a focus to learn A, B, and C in sprint/week 1, and D & E<br>
in sprint/week 2, 9-12 weeks is very do-able.<br>
<br>
If the boot camp had sponsors looking to hire, and the emphasis could<br>
be placed on those skills, a job 1 week after, at 2x a marketer's<br>
salary, is also very do-able.<br>
<br>
I think this idea is actually awesome.<br>

I cannot imagine being able to teach someone how to be a web<br>
developer in 9 - 12 weeks. I'd like to see the curriculum. Way too<br>
much to know.<br>
