It looks like a pretty good program, not necessarily the sequence of the
classes but the curriculum in general looks pretty solid. I went
through something similar at CCAC and benefited from it greatly. Just
about all of the credits will transfer to any state funded school in
Pennsylvania (as long as they fit into the program of study), and if you
decide programming isn't the thing for you at least you won't find
yourself $80,000 in debt. The teachers there are as good as
anywhere...if not better in some cases. And, when I attended, their
equipment was top of the line.
I actually just left my job in Higher Ed for a programming job in the
financial industry. While employed at 'The University', I'd still refer
people to CCAC before shelling out the big bucks.
Good Luck!

Greetings, good people,
I was wondering if any of you folks had an opinion on county certificate
programs such as the one referenced below.

I have a pipe dream of becoming a salaried software developer but as a
new father and husband my options are limited...
