Let's no longer use the word "bootcamp" for our training
As noted in the Leadership page (item 33), military language is not inclusive and should be avoided. "Bootcamp" is a military term. In the spirit of our handbook, I would like us to come up with a new term to use for describing and naming our training issues.
Proposal
I'm recommending that we replace "bootcamp" with "101 Module". This aligns with the new use of "module" as the term for each discreet unit of training. And "101" provides an indicator of the level and style of the training that aligns with what I believe was the intention behind "bootcamp."
Next Steps
