I think having a separate tracks for FE and BE would be a better option for 2 reasons:

  • Bootcamps have limited time to train hundreds of students so quality should be primary focus rather than quantity. Here, the T rule really helps out or "to know everything about something and something about everything". This also keeps students less distracted and helps them in getting more confidence about the knowledge

  • A lot of companies (mainly established/stable) had separate positions for FE and BE. If bootcamps can train students by keeping this context in mind, it would become easier for them and students to transition from towards the field of SWE.

At the end, it's all about empowering people enough to the point where they feel confident and are able to get job in I.T not to spoon feed everything.
