Dear Lacnet  responders,

Thank you all for your valuable input. Your ideas and opinions will help me 
move forward with anticipated changes to our program.

While I am disappointed that the state license overides the IBCLC 
certification, I suspected the same and long for the day that the IBCLC 
designation stands alone, period.  I would bet my next paycheck on the fact 
that in the U.S. that will be when and if  we become  licensed, not 
certified and require a minimum educational requirement. I'm not saying I 
agree,  just that it is the way we think we need to do things in this 
country for credibility.

This thread might keep going a bit longer, so if there are any more comments 
be my guest.

Groundhog said about spring!
