A though experiment, u/doyureadme
If someone said they were an engineer and want to become a therapist in 3 months the answer would be that this is crazy because of licensing etc...
Let's say the person doesn't need that and is allowed to, so they do it.
Would you as a customer want to go to a therapist that has 3 months of training and no licensing or certification?
The answer is no. Or maybe if the cost is cheap enough. But you wouldn't pay this person the same as licensed/certified one.
The bootcamp illusion is over. It CAN work in some cases but those are edge cases for people with tangential experience transition into tangential roles. E.g. sales person at tech company becoming a 'sales engineer'.
