Chris said "So, just imagine that there were a bottle or formula or baby food company that complied with the Code...And suppose they staged a conference on infant feeding and invited me to speak. Could I be a paid speaker? I believe that, under the Code, I could, but under the IBLCE standard, I could not---or at least, IBLCE would not issue CERPs if I did, so no LCs would want to come." Chris and all, I have been made aware that iblce position has changed and cerps can be awarded provided the speaker fills out the conflict of interest form and reveals actual or potential conflict to the audience. please refer to iblce for more info. thanks to ann calandro for setting me straight. i hope ann will correct me again if i am wrong.
