Has anyone ever sponsored or been sponsored for Dev Bootcamp, or the like?

I'm curious to hear the experiences of companies that have sponsored, or people who have been sponsored for Dev Bootcamp, The Starter League or the like.<p>Do you think it was worth it? Was it a success? Do you think it would've been a better experience if you were not sponsored?

I've been looking into a program like Dev Bootcamp as well, what do you mean sponsored?

I've heard that companies will sometimes pay candidates they know/like to go to one of these programs to learn to code. Seems a bit risky, but I'd like to hear whether someone has had success doing something like this.
