My partner went to Makersquare (since bought & rebranded Hack Reactor).
They joined a successful small e-commerce site (Javascript), then a few years later joined Loon (Google X) (Python), and sensing the wind switched to another Google X project before Loon shut down.
The interesting thing is that much of the value of a diploma/certification is in the "brand" backing it.
In any case, I don't think my partner was counting on the value of the Makersquare brand as anything other than getting their foot in the industry, so that's done and gone.

They're doing pretty well, if I say so myself.
