🌹 🖥️ Bootcamp Exploitation 🖥️ 🌹
Thursday, July 7th, 7PM ET (zoom link to come!)
Developer bootcamps have grown massively in popularity over the past decade. Many workers attend these programs in an attempt to switch to a new career, supplement their traditional education, or enter the tech industry without going through a traditional higher education program. While these programs can help workers jump into a higher paying job and industry, they are also marred heavily by student and worker exploitation.
Come join us for an open virtual discussion about how bootcamps exploit students, how employers exploit recent bootcamp grads, and what workers can do to better protect themselves.
