So this site one of my coworkers told me about: https://www.appacademy.io/course/app-academy-open
It IS a “boot camp” style but if you went part time, it takes a year to complete going online for class for 3 hours Monday through Thursday and then 9am-3pm every Saturday. Additionally, you have about an hour of homework a night.
Also, you don’t pay tuition unless you land a job paying at least $50,000. They also have you create a portfolio of your projects over the course of the year that you are completing the class. They also have job placement advisors that work full-time with their soon-to-be graduates.
Has anyone heard of this? Or even with everything I mentioned above about this school, still stay away from it?
Thanks in advance everyone.

You can do this yourself, for free, via the OSSU link in a previous post. OSSU doesn't have job placement, per se, but if you join the Discord server then there are people there who can advise you on how to proceed. Some of them are already in the industry, and have been for years. Others have recently finished the OSSU program and have been hired. Overall, for time/money investment, I'd trust OSSU over paying App Academy.
