Boot camps have become a significant force in software development, taking in novices or amateurs and hoping to transform them into professional developers in a few months.

My question is: What do you think about boot camps for security technicians? It's obviously not going to result in the same pay as software developers nor can it cost us as much. However, there is generally a shortage of entry level technicians and for say 2 months of hands-on training could result in some good entry level technicians.
I know their a SIA community college program but boot camps are popular alternative for being shorter and more focused on the real technical skills needed.
So what do you think? What opportunities or problems do you see?
