Also blame the students themselves. It really doesn't matter what collages they attended, how poor their teacher was etc.

The internet is the biggest teacher of all. With institutions like Khan Academy and MITx and Google and coursera and other MOOCs, the availability of free knowledge is plentyful for people with an ounce of interest.

And never invest in a person who does not love programming or problem solving. No amount of training can fix a character flaw.
