Is Lighthouse Labs shutting down?

Lighthouse Labs was acquired by [https://uvaro.com/](https://uvaro.com/) earlier this year so I doubt it's shutting down entirely because they have some stable backer. One reason is enrollment was so low it wasn't viable to offer the cohort. Even non-profit bootcamps have to break even and can't lose money, and if so few people are enrolled in a cohort, they can easily lose money. Another reason could be that an instructor dropped and they can't practically offer it and don't know when they will get an instructor. That said the flags to me are: 1. They didn't give a transparent reason why 2. They didn't give any date or approximate date when to join. So I wouldn't assume they are shutting down but I would be cautiously watching, and I would probably ask them more questions about what's going on.

Is this, from your understanding, the largest BootCamp in Canada?

I can't comment on that because I don't know. But it's a large reputable company that's been around for a while and not a random popup company.

They went bankrupt
