In this episode of Edtech Conversations, Lucas and Luna examine the growing gap between traditional university computer science programs and intensive coding bootcamps. They dive into the numbers: while over 50,000 students graduate with CS degrees each year in the US, only about a third feel job-ready. Meanwhile, bootcamps like General Assembly and Flatiron School boast placement rates above 80 percent but face their own cost and quality challenges. The hosts discuss why the edtech market is now pushing 'micro-credentials' and stackable certificates as the middle ground, and what this means for hiring managers and students alike. A balanced look at an industry in transition, anchored in real data from the past year.
