Why does the government think software development jobs can be done by the equivalent of people who have gone to a trade school for one semester? I don't see the government pushing finance career or lawyer boot camps. I wonder how the DOE even made the decision of which boot camps to partner with.


Cool, can you point me to some lawyer bootcamps, this whole time I thought that was a heavily regulated industry that required degrees and a bar exam to be qualified. Really stoked to let my wife know she didn't need to take those CPA exams to practice too.


My understanding is you can actually take the bar exam in several states without having attended law school. Regulations can always be changed, I don't see groups or the government pushing to liberalize training requirements and allow boot camps to train someone to take these tests.


It varies state by state but yes, in some states you can take the BAR exam without attending law school. In California, for example, you have to apprentice for a practicing lawyer for four years and have five years experience practicing (18 hrs per week) before you can take the test
