Pam asks:
Did I read the new eligibility requirements correctly to say that candidates
can still qualify under the old pathways until 2011, if they have already
started preparing for the exam under those pathways? My reading of the
difference for LLL Leaders with a B.A. was under the old pathway, 2500 clinical
experience hours, plus demonstrating the 4 clock-hours of the medical background
subjects, and under the new requirement, 2000 clinical experience hours, but
all having taken place within the last 5 years, and no REQUIREMENT for the
medical background courses, but with those courses "recommended."

Right. PLUS 45 hours lactation management course (didactic) within the past
5 years.
So: Non-Licensed HCP: 2000 hours breastfeeding experience under
supervision within 5 hours sitting the exam plus 45 hours (or more) lactation education
(didactic).
Licensed HCP: 1000 hours bf experience plus the above.
