Podcast
November 10, 2021

I had a conversation with the co-founder of the first coding bootcamp (Dev Bootcamp), Jesse Farmer, and the founder of Launch School, Chris Lee, to discuss the future of bootcamps.

Topics discussed:

  • Launch School founding
  • Mastery-based Learning
  • Async vs Live Programs
  • Future of Bootcamps
  • Job placement vs personalized education
  • Building a sustainable business
  • Bootstrapping vs VS

Bootcamps are not dying; however, they are adapting. We discuss what it will take for bootcamps to thrive over the next decade.
