Anyone have good news to share?

Over 3,200 candidates from 74 countries sat the September 2024 IBCLC examination. We just began releasing examination results to candidates in their online credential management account.

Releasing the examination results is an intensive process; therefore, it will take approximately 72 hours to release examination results. The examination results must be released in segments. This means you may see your results before or after someone else you know.

Once all results have been released, we will send an email to candidates with instructions to access their examination results and their score report online.

As previously announced, the Public Registry is temporarily unavailable while results are being released. We will make it available again as soon as possible.

In our new upcoming webinar, we will be discussing "Closing the Gap: The Physician's Role in Eliminating Racial Disparities in Breastfeeding." Physicians play a crucial role in addressing and mitigating racial disparities in breastfeeding. Physicians can help ensure that all mothers, regardless of their racial or ethnic background, have the support and resources they need to successfully breastfeed. Join our expert faculty members who will elaborate on their recent AAP News article, "10 Strategies Pediatricians Can Use to Achieve Breastfeeding Equity."
