A level higher than CLA

[Chuan]

I remember there was a new level higher than CLA, called CLG? Any ideas or any preparation materials about this?

[Jacobson-ni]

Maybe you are thinking of the CLED?

This is a newer certification but I wouldnt say that it is a higher level of certification than the CLA.  The only prerequisite of taking the CLED is being a CLD.  I do not know a lot about the test myself but I have heard that it is very difficult.

It is not CLED, but I forgot the name. It is still LanVIEW based, irrelevant to embedded system

yes, the CLG does exist - it is awarded only once a year (i think, since 2014).

for this year, you are about 2 weeks too late

Do you know where to find preparation materials?

for your information:

CLG means "Certified Labview Gladiator".

NI did post the description on their page,

but they seem to have deleted this page in the early morning hours of April 2nd.

Unfortunately, I didnt store it

(but dont worry: neither you not me nor anny one registered here would have fulfilled the requirmenets...)

Ah, the NI April Fools postings...always good for a laugh.  But I am amazed at how many people thought that one was for real.
