Pathway 2 requires that candidates complete a college or university program in human lactation and breastfeeding.
Look for an academic program that is accredited by the Lactation Education Accreditation and Approval Review Committee (LEAARC). For additional information go to: http://iblce.org/certify/pathways.
Note: Beginning January 1, 2017, academic programs purporting to prepare students to qualify for the IBLCE examination through Pathway 2 must be accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs or an equivalent accrediting body.
