National Instruments will offer LabVIEW Core 3 in place of this course starting April 2010. Check your local schedule for more details.

If the new LabVIEW Core courses are not yet available, the LabVIEW Basics and Intermediate courses still provide you with recommended techniques to reduce development time and improve application performance and scalability. The new courses are built largely from the material in the LabVIEW Basics and Intermediate courses.

While the Basics courses introduce you to the LabVIEW environment and application development, the hands-on LabVIEW Intermediate I course teaches you structured practices to design, develop, test, and deploy LabVIEW applications. You learn recommended application development techniques such as hierarchical VI development, event-based architectures, appropriate user interface design, error-handling strategies, and effective documentation.

After attending the course, you are able to analyze your application requirements, choose the correct design pattern and data structures for your application, and quickly test and deploy your design, which helps you reduce development time and improve application performance and scalability. By incorporating these design practices early in your development, you avoid unnecessary application redesign, increase VI reuse, and minimize maintenance costs.
