    I believe that there's a market for large organizations to setup their own online schools that will teach what their employees need to know with out them having to have a college degree. That's how many companies used to function. They expected all their employees to have a high school diploma. Once they were hired the companies would do in house training and would finance some to get their college education as part of their benefits so they could fill spots that really need a specialized college degree. The FBI would fit well into this framework.

    I think that by a large degree most software developers don't need a college degree to get their job done.
