Online class

[PCAD]

I have been learning Lab view through free resources, but have not been able to make any progress. Now I am thinking of taking online classes, does anyone know which website offers this in a reasonable price? Also, to enhance my skills what I should read or follow?

Do you work for a company that has an active SSP?  Usually not even the company knows that "free" training comes with a LabVIEW license, but you have to take it before the SSP expires.  (Make sure it's okay with the company, though, because it's their license, not yours.)  I think they are good for 1 year.  I mentioned "free" in quotes because even though you don't have to pay for the online courses, it's my feeling that it's kind of built into the extravagant LabVIEW price tag.

The courses available include LabVIEW CORE 1-3, a lot of other courses, also, depending on what your SSP covers, and you receive certifications for completion just like if you attended them in person.

Hi PCAD,

Just sharing my personal experience. I have been using LabView slightly over an year now and I am able to write FPGA, RT and PC codes (and they work as expected, haha). I do not come from a computer science or electrical engineering and LabView is my first exposure for EVER writing a program of any sort. I would give credit to the official course material and this community:

1) LabView Core1

2) LabView Core2

3) LabVIew Core3

They have exercises that helped me clear up my concepts. These 3 modules enabled me to build code for PC side (gets better everyday) and since I needed work with RT board and FPGA I took those courses as well. The advanced architecture course work was also very helpful as it allowed in me think from an architecture design perspective basically gave me ability to build more modular codes, better establish communication between PC, RT and FPGA.

I think it was the best investment I ever made. Also, this community holds information on anything I ever thought about and there are geniuses who passionately try answer your questions if an answer is not there already.

I also looked into YouTube videos and there are a ton of them that helped me clear some of my doubts
