Debate: Are those $2,000 online 'career accelerator' courses worth it? I feel like I got scammed.

Man, what kind of course was it? My buddy dropped like $1,500 on one that promised to make him a project manager in six weeks. They just gave him a bunch of free articles you could find online and a useless certificate. He said the "coaching calls" were just pre-recorded videos, lol. Felt totally ripped off and it messed with his confidence for a bit.

That "useless certificate" part hits home. My cousin paid for a coding bootcamp cert that employers just laughed at during interviews. What was the last course you took that actually helped?
