hfettig Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 35 spots? 5 days? Wasn't the original course length 2 days and isn't there usually a 12 student limit? So my question is, do they take the 2 day content and spread it over 5 days because of the 36 student? I know that my LV Basic courses always take more time with more students. Or do they actually add more meat to the course? Would that be covered by the Training and Certification Membership? I hope not or they will have lots of LV novices just looking for a free cruise Quote Link to comment

It will be linked to from the LabVIEW OOP course page once we get the page updated: http://digital.ni.com/express.nsf/bycode/cruise Quote Link to comment
