Is CLAD or even CLD possibly in just two months?

[alomah3]

I’m applying for an internship and I’ve heard that having a lab-view certificate and project is the single best thing I can do. I just started really learning today, spending about 4 hours, going through all the introduction videos from NI and briefly looking at some practice exams. I plan on taking the CLAD early February.

I can comfortably put about 1-3 hours a day into studying and learning the software. My thought process is, that if i am going to spend the next two months absolutely grinding my ass off creating multiple projects, I might just be able to take the practical exam for my CLD. I think I might feel a little more comfortable creating a full program in 5 hours, than taking a 90 minute test

Again I have really only put about 6 hours of research and practice into Lab view so I’m aware I might be grossly underestimating how hard the exams might be. But please let me know if this is realistic at all, and if you know of any courses that will help. Thank you!

Click the link on my signature to see if you have the experience to be a CLAD. I hear they've added DAQmx to it. And I can't understand why.

I would venture to say that anyone who doesn't know that it is LabVIEW and not Lab view will have a tough time passing the test.

and do you really think you are operating at this level for CLD?

This has been asked (and answered!) on reddit a few days ago. It would only be polite to give a link to the earlier discussion to avoid duplicate efforts.
