Hello Everyone, I saw a posting today about a woman that an IBCLC knows who is waiting for her CLE certificate to come so that she can do consultations. Unless there is another organization out there, this is the CAPPA Certification program that I went through, and it states in the manual and cert. packet that "a CLE provides informational and educational breastfeeding classes......this program does not issue LC status and does not qualify one to give medical advice, diagnose medical conditions for mother or baby, or to prescribe treatment or medications." If this woman is advertising LC Consultations this info. needs to be brought to her attention or to CAPPA'S (www.cappa.net) as it is so important that women get the best care and information possible.
