The traditional education institutions are very respected. The non-traditional are also well respected already, just out of reach for the low income students (aside, Flatiron school was the only one to release an audited report of job placement earlier this year - http://www.ibtimes.com/code-boot-camps-fail-obama-unaudited-... ). And lastly, there's that quality assurance entity like ANSI which places like the university of phoenix and the fly by night boot camps would shy away from.
