Lamaze International offers a Breastfeeding Specialist workshop, not a
 Certified Breastfeeding Educator course.  Our instructors do NOT
 advocate/push the acceptance of funding from formula companies for
 in-services, etc. The course she attended was sponsored by someone else,
not
 Lamaze International.

 If you have further questions, please contact me,
Teri Shilling, MS, CD, IBCLC, LCCE, FACCE
President, Lamaze International
