Aw, from the thread title, I was kind of hoping that it would be an article about buying degrees on the Shopify platform.

That looks like an amazing opportunity.

Is this an accredited degree?
or something like Udacity certificate??
I'm curious how they can have any accreditation.
'Dev Degree' is just name of their program. It's not a degree....
"Dev Degree is an innovative evolution of the traditional co-op program, allowing you to master development skills faster. Four years of continuous hands-on experience at Shopify in parallel to attending classes gives you the opportunity to put those skills to use on real-world problems—while you learn."
So, it's like Udacity.

They partner with real RA universities. Currently, make school is operating under the umbrella of Dominican University, but is in the process of independent WASC accreditation. See the accreditation section on their FAQ page: https://www.makeschool.com/
