JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

 If you can go through the Django tutorials and launch a few sites populated with some fake data (Faker/Lorem Ipsum), you'd be ready to start work as a junior dev inside of a few months with no real upfront cost to you. I work in SF and most of the people I work with don't have CS degrees, just experience and drive. I would run through a few of the online hits like codecademy, codeschool, and the Django tutorials and build a nice portfolio/github. Practice coding challenges and you'll be good to go!
