I was just hoping that perhaps some of you have > more information on this school and whether you think it is worth the > investment. It all comes down to how best you learn, your priorities, and your resources. $10K is a hell of a lot of money for something that *can* conceivably be learned on your own. On the other hand, a structured class setting offers a form of mentorship and some help with rapid skill uptake, including the time pressures from externally imposed deadlines. Ultimately, I do not think that these programs are worth anywhere near that much money in and of themselves. Two things that might make them worth more are both tangential to the skill acquisition: 1. possible job placement help 2. employers valuing documented instruction over autodidactic learning The first is mostly valuable only because of the second, which means that the biggest benefit from such a program in the general case is bypassing employment gatekeepers who feel the need to justify hiring recommendations through key resume bullet points rather than relying solely on actual suitability to the job. There are specific cases where the benefits of the hands-on instructional model might be more valuable to a given student than the increased ability to slide into the job market. This relates specifically to people whose best prospects for learning come from that instructional model, though -- and not to people whose learning is best served by other approaches to acquiring skills. So . . . the upshot is that, unless the Flatiron School is just garbage, the answer is "It depends." -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
