Either way that doesn't mean it's made for "the job market". All it entails is you were sold a false premise just like how bootcamps promise of 6 figure salaries after a week of training...

It's still made for those that want to be educated.

In the Netherlands the have, for example, the Hoger Beroep Onderwijs (HBO), which translates to Higher Professional Education. It is exactly tailored for the job market.

HBO sounds more like a vocational system that provides diplomas vs a bachelor degree in reference to universities in this discussion.

This type of system definitely exists in many places but I just assume it's out of scope as we're talking about in reference to CS graduates i.e. bachelor courses.
