INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
While coding bootcamps may be in the middle of a shakeout, technology companies around the world are still going to be struggling to fill

This round is co-led by Highland Capital Partners, Macquarie Capital and Exceed Capital

Degreed raised $42 million earlier this year, and there are still other programs like MissionU (which raised $8.5 million late last year)
