Diane, I don't know, but will be happy to give it a try.  In the meantime,
as a new student nurse, I was outraged to discover that my PEPID nursing
software required for my PDA carries a list of credentials, with
explanations of what they mean ... but no IBCLC! I am writing to the
company!

My standard signature line on letters was always Diane Wiessinger, MS, IBCLC
International Board Certified Lactation Consultant

I changed it to=20
Diane Wiessinger, MS, IBCLC, RLC
International Board Certified Lactation Consultant

But I'm wondering now if we do ourselves a better service with simply Diane
Wiessinger, MS, RLC International Board Certified Lactation Consultant

It avoids a string of initials that no one has ever heard of, still gets =
the definition across in actual words, and the "R" probably connects = with
more people as meaning "Registered" than those 4 letters that so = often get
confused with course-created initials.  What do others do?
