Raymond Sewer, who enrolled in a $9,000 cloud computing boot camp associated with Caltech, found the program poorly supported and mostly outsourced, revealing issues with such online education.
Sewer's instructor was from Mississippi and a facilitator was in India, neither of whom had meaningful ties to Caltech, illustrating the lack of genuine university involvement in many online programs.
Despite Caltech's prestigious reputation, many online programs they offer lack proper regulation, relying instead on third-party companies like Simplilearn to run what are marketed as educational opportunities.
Sewer's experience underscores a larger trend in higher education, where colleges promote online programs that may not involve faculty or accredited curricula, leading to potential confusion and dissatisfaction.
