and all  I want to know is when can I be an IBCLC Emeritus.
I don't look forward to  taking the test in 2016 for the 4th time!
~~~ Well said, and something I admit I've been harping about for years. As  
a licensed Physical Therapist, I had to sit in a room with 3 licensed,  
experienced PTs and role play several patient scenarios while they watched, as  
well as take the written exam another day. My license ( which is a state  
license) is renewed every 3 years by Continuing Education, which we are  
asked to keep track on  the honor system! Our profession seems to both  respect 
us and trust us a lot more than IBLCE does. Taking an entry-level exam  over 
and over again just seems a waste of resources on everyone's part. I don't  
mind filling in those forms at the 5 year mark and submitting for  
recertification. If only they would let us do that instead of retesting at ENTRY  
level.... 
 
Peace,
Judy
