Hi, I am going to be taking the course and exam for the CLC in a few weeks...I will also be working towards my IBCLC as I have been since I began working for WIC. I know it's not the same, and I plan on using the CLC behind my name.  Will this be an issue?  I know that the CLC stands for Certified Lactation "Counselor", and the IBCLC is IBCL "Consultant"  there is a difference-I am clear on this.  I know several WIC staff that will be earning their CLCs at the same time I am.  Is this a mistake?  I thought it was a stepping stone to the IBCLC, I could be wrong.  Have a blessed day,Merideth M.
