Dear Friends:
Barbara Ash reminds us that the second credential is not a done
deal........yet.
But how is it that IBLCE continues on its merry way towards this second
credential, despite a negative reaction from ILCA?
Here's what is on the IBLCE website this morning about the second credential:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Breastfeeding Peer Support Credential: The International Board of Lactation
Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) has identified a need in Canada and the United
States to define a baseline of competence for those providing community-based
breastfeeding peer support. The Board is developing a criterion-referenced
certification to evaluate the competence of these individuals, who are an important
component of the continuum of care available to breastfeeding mothers in
these countries. Relevant stakeholders are being consulted."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who are these "relevant stakeholders"?
Does the Board of Directors of IBLCE ignore ILCA?
warmly,
Nikki Lee RN, MS, Mother of 2, IBCLC, CCE,CIMI
