The NI Certified LabVIEW Associate Developer is the first step in the three-part NI LabVIEW certification process. It indicates a broad working knowledge of the LabVIEW environment, a basic understanding of coding and documentation best practices, and the ability to read and interpret existing code. I can use this certification to assess and validate an individual’s LabVIEW development skills for the purpose of project staffing or career advancement.
