Coding Bootcamp for traders??

What do you guys think about coding bootcamp to learn quant skills for someone entering the industry without a STEM background?

Want to keep my options open but right now most interested in linear rates, MBS, FX, or commodities.

Thinking maybe I'll do this to learn coding well or get a certificate from some of the university programs offered like Georgia Tech.

Would appreciate some input from any of the traders on here that use programming often.

Suggestions as to programs for either would be very welcome.

Thank you!!
