US states are turning their backs on bachelor’s degrees. Work is needed

But universities--some--have always done this, and it has been increasing A little research, please. please

Bachelor's degrees have become increasingly irrelevant in technology majors as universities give a cookie cutter approach not caring at all how fluent students are in many different coding languages that they may have been using daily for years. Students are expected to waste years learning skills they already know and cannot test out of, graduating them exactly where they started. Our son is in this boat, having finished an AA and an AS through dual enrollment, is now taking basic coding courses for the third time in order to finish a Bachelor's despite having been employed as a software engineer from the age of 16 and his AS in Computer Programming and Analysis. If colleges want to keep their customers then they need to get over their arrogance and actually teach something students don't already know after finding out what they already do.

In South Africa, this is called Recognition of Prior Learning, RPL, and it is fairly wide spread. I did a doctoral thesis on it in 2007! So not a new idea. It's the best way to bring non traditional (mature and minorities) into the antiquated HE system and it saves time and money.
