LabView Core1: The first step in any NI LabVIEW learning path, LabVIEW Core 1 gives you the chance to explore the LabVIEW environment, dataflow programming, and common LabVIEW development techniques in a hands-on format. In this course you will learn to develop data acquisition, instrument control, data-logging, and measurement analysis applications. At the end of the course, you will be able to create applications using the state machine design pattern to acquire, process, display, and store real-world data.

LabView Core2: The LabVIEW Core 2 course is an extension of the LabVIEW Core 1 course and teaches you to use common design patterns to successfully implement and distribute LabVIEW applications for research, engineering, and testing environments. Topics covered include programmatic control of your user interface, techniques to optimize reuse of existing code, use of file I/O functions, and tools to create executables and installers. This course directly links LabVIEW functionality to your application needs and provides a jump-start for application development.

LabView Core3: LabVIEW Core 3 introduces you to structured practices to design, implement, document, and test LabVIEW applications. This course focuses on developing hierarchical applications that are scalable, readable, and maintainable. The processes and techniques covered in this course help reduce development time and improve application stability. By incorporating these design practices early in your development, you avoid unnecessary application redesign, increase VI reuse, and minimize maintenance costs.

Certifiction Exams: National Instruments offers certifications for LabVIEW and TestStand software products. These certifications can help validate development, architecture, and project management skills for the purposes of project staffing and career advancement.

Managing Software Engineering in LabView: Learn to cultivate the skills you need to effectively manage and deliver large NI LabVIEW applications in single- or multi-developer environments.  Also obtain common practices for managing large, team-oriented projects from specification to deployment. By incorporating these application development practices, you can improve development processes and optimize applications and resources to effectively reduce development time and costs.

Advanced Architectures in LabView: This advanced course discusses how to design and implement scalable, extensible software architectures for large LabVIEW applications. Participate in discussions and work independently and collaboratively to learn how to architect an application and design components to support the architecture. Learn about several advanced design patterns, reference architectures, inter-process communication methods, and more. All instructors for this course are Certified LabVIEW Architects.
