The Management of Breastfeeding covers the developmental stages of infancy, including sensory capabilities and reflexes, nutritional needs of the mother-infant dyad, and the assessment and management of infant and mother health issues related to breastfeeding.
The exams at the end of Modules 1, 2, 3, and 4, while still useful in preparing for the IBCLC exam, are not eligible for CERPS or Continuing Education credits for registered dietitians or nurses.
