There are solid programs that offer ISAs now. e.g. Hack Reactor. I appreciate what Lambda School has done for the industry (pioneering the ISA), but the execution has been a total disaster. Trying to scale a business that relies on services, and basically zero technology, is a very, very bad time.

But there are companies that have been successful with it. (General Assembly, App Academy is having some success, Hack Reactor is growing, Flatiron School, Thinkful, Spring Board)

Next generation of bootcamps will be much higher quality instruction based on technology. (See Fullstack Academy)

And they will be partnered with big FAANGs, or built in-house by FAANGs. (Again, Lambda pioneering)
