The parprofessional breastfeeding counselor who works for our Breastfeeding support project is hoping to take the IBCLCE exam next July. We have learned about several courses she could take including the UCLA course in order to prepare for the exam but she is not interested in traveling and our budget is pretty tight. SHe has decided to study on her own for the exam. Is she out of her mind? How many of you have taken and passed the exam without taking any formal classes? I would appreciate the feedback. TIA, Laura ALdag
