We will also consider:
- readiness to write about the experience of attending this event
- involvement with LCGB, (or suggestions as to how you might become involved, and how much time you could commit)
- evidence of offering support and benefit to breastfeeding mothers
- whether this is offered on a voluntary basis
- how the candidate will use the knowledge acquired at Conference
Eligibility requirements: these places are for those on the pathway to becoming IBCLCs, for re-registering IBCLCs and for breastfeeding supporters in special circumstances.
By completing this form you grant permission to the LCGB committee awarding the funding to make further enquiries and/or request a telephone interview in relation to this application.
Preference will be given to aspiring and renewing IBCLCs and applicants from under-represented groups, and applicants who contribute or are willing to contribute their time and effort towards furthering the aims of LCGB.
