<< LC "residents" or "interns" - neat idea for helping people get over this
hours needed hump. Maybe they could take IBCLE exam for a nominal fee (like
$50). If pass, it does not confer IBCLC status, just an "official" learner
status while compiling hours. >>
Wouldn't it be a hoot if a lot of people passed without the required hours?
what about not "THE" IBLCE exam, but AN exam -- not as long or complicated
-- that is developed and administered by IBLCE?
I kind of like the designation LC Intern. It implies you have your basic
education under your belt, but are working on your hours and experience.
Hmmm.....
