What You Need To Know About Lactation Consultant Certifications

The International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) is an international organisation of specialists in breastfeeding and lactation. It’s the only body able to provide an officially recognised certification for lactation consultants (IBCLC). There are many lactation consultants in Hong Kong who hold this certification, though it isn’t a requirement and you don’t need this qualification to practise in Hong Kong.

Another certification that holds weight across the world is that of a La Leche League (LLL) Leader. Leaders have been accredited by La Leche League International to offer mother-to-mother support for breastfeeding (see below for more information).
