Come celebrate IBCLC Day with us live on March 1, 2023!
IBCLC Day is an annual event recognizing the work and dedication of IBCLCs around the world. Each and every day, IBCLCs provide expert care to families, from home visits to bedside help in hospital and beyond. IBCLCs are uniquely situated to educate and support families at every stage of their infant feeding experience.
We’re thrilled to have Janiya Mitnaul Williams, MA, IBCLC, CLC sharing her insightful presentation “Breaking the Silos: Understanding the Connections Between Labor Interventions and Lactation” to celebrate IBCLC Day. We’ll be coming together to recognize the importance of IBCLCs and to advance the field of lactation with this practice-changing education.
This presentation sheds important light on how early lactation is directly impacted by maternity care practices and what we can do to protect and support breastfeeding/chestfeeding. Janiya will cover the ways we can include families in every aspect of perinatal and postpartum care as a means of increasing self-efficacy and confidence. We’ll also learn what additional supports parents need when their lactation journeys have been interrupted and how we can help set the foundation for increased initiation and duration of human milk feeding.
This event is FREE with 1 L-CERP available upon completion. In addition to the live presentation, recorded access is included with registration.

IBLCE has extended the deadline to recertify by CERPs to October 31 and it’s easier than ever to find the education you need with our brand new search tool!
Click through to search for presentations by IBCLC Detailed Outline categories: https://www.goldlearning.com/ce-library/ibclc-outline
As part of the recertification process, IBCLCs can choose to complete 75 Continuing Education Recognition Points (CERPs) at each 5 year mark. IBLCE’s new Continuing Education Self-Assessment tool helps to identify competencies and guides which areas need to be included in an individual’s continuing education hours.
The CE Self-Assessment is a computer-based tool which includes approximately 70 multiple choice questions. It may be completed once every 5-year recertification cycle and generates a Personalised Professional Development Plan.
IBCLCs recertifying in 2022 will need up to 7 of their 75 CERPs to be based on the outcome of their CE Self-Assessment. In 2023 the portion of CERPs increases to 20 out of the 75 CERPs, and in 2024 it will increase again to 34 of the 75 CERPs.
For further information on this process, please visit IBLCE’s website: https://iblce.org/step-1-prepare-for-ibclc-recertification/
You’ll find over 400 presentations in our GOLD Learning LIbrary covering all areas of the IBCLC Detailed Content Outline. A variety of bundle sizes are available, including individual webinars, small lecture packs, and full conferences.
Our new search tool allows you to quickly and clearly identify the education you need so you can easily complete your recertification. Instantly access recordings to watch at your own pace, and enjoy a viewing period that allows you to watch and re-watch recordings. Download speaker handouts to cement your learning, take notes, and more.
We’re glad to be part of your ongoing IBCLC journey!
