for more information.

The Skills Guide assists you in identifying the proficiency requirements of your 
current application and gives you options for obtaining those skills consistent with 
your time and budget constraints and personal learning preferences. Visit 

ni.com/

skills-guide

 to see these custom paths.

NI offers courses in several languages and formats including instructor-led classes at 
facilities worldwide, courses on-site at your facility, and online courses to serve your 
individual needs.

Technical Support—

Support at 

ni.com/support

 

includes the following resources:

Self-Help Technical Resources—

Visit 

ni.com/support

 

for software drivers and 

updates, a searchable KnowledgeBase, product manuals, step-by-step troubleshooting 
wizards, thousands of example programs, tutorials, application notes, instrument 
drivers, and so on. Registered users also receive access to the NI Discussion Forums 
at 

ni.com/forums

. NI Applications Engineers make sure every question submitted 

online receives an answer.

Software Support Service Membership—

The Standard Service Program (SSP) is a 

renewable one-year subscription included with almost every NI software product, 
including NI Developer Suite. This program entitles members to direct access to 
NI Applications Engineers through phone and email for one-to-one technical support, 
as well as exclusive access to online training modules at 

ni.com/

self-paced-training

. NI also offers flexible extended contract options that 

guarantee your SSP benefits are available without interruption for as long as you need 
them. Visit 

ni.com/ssp

 for more information.

Declaration of Conformity (DoC)—

A DoC is our claim of compliance with the Council 

of the European Communities using the manufacturer’s declaration of conformity. This 
system affords the user protection for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and product 
safety. You can obtain the DoC for your product by visiting 

ni.com/certification

.

For information about other technical support options in your area, visit
