The rise of tech boot camps is among us. I love the idea of taking a quick training to learn valuable career-driven skills to help you work in a high-paying vocation without a college degree or experience.

I attended a university and I remember seeing commercials on TV for a lot of vocational schools in my area.

They taught skills for working jobs in industries like aerospace, healthcare, IT, and others. They seemed great but, here’s what I didn’t like about them.

  • They were in-person only
  • The jobs weren’t high-paying

So sure, you could go to a vocational school for 9 months and come out being able to work in a profession but, I can’t get excited about working for $16/hour or $18/hour, after training.

There’s got to be something better out there.

There is!

Tech boot camps.

And, in this Avocademy review, I’m going to talk about Avocademy, the boot camp training program that teaches you UX/UI design.

Let’s get started.

What is Avocademy?
