Master the Art of Pumping & Feeding Gear: Transform Your IBCLC Practice in Just One Day!
Imagine having the unwavering confidence to recommend the perfect pumping and feeding gear for every client, every time. This hands-on, in-person workshop is your exclusive opportunity to gain cutting-edge expertise in an ever-evolving industry.
Why This Workshop Is Worth Every Penny
In a world where online courses and virtual resources are everywhere, nothing beats the hands-on experience you'll gain in this one-day workshop.
You'll interact with 20+ electric pumps, 25+ bottles, and 40+ flanges, ensuring you're well-equipped to help your clients with real-world recommendations that can change their breastfeeding journey.
There will also be nipple shields, pacifiers, and alternative feeding devices there for you to see and play with.
By attending this workshop, you’ll:
- Stand Out in Your Field: With so many lactation professionals relying on basic knowledge (I mean, pumping isn't even part of our basic education most of the time, right?!?), you’ll be ahead of the curve, ready with the latest techniques and the ability to offer modern solutions for flange fittings, pump selection, bottle choices and even bottlefeeding techniques.
- Get Hands-On Experience, Not Just Theory: You’ll be able to touch and play with all types of feeding gear, flanges, and pumps, plus observe and assist real pumping people with flange fittings during the workshop!
- Receive Ongoing Learning & Support: After the workshop, you'll get access to many hours of additional bonus videos (with at least a year of access to those!). You'll be invited to join a private Facebook group with your colleagues, which includes occasional Live sessions; and you get access to any updates that are made to the bonus videos and online resources. All of this ensures you stay updated on new product releases and industry trends.
- Earn An Invitation to be added to a new directory of perinatal professionals who have taken the workshop, so more of your colleagues can refer clients to you, connect with you, and so clients, providers, and even durable medical equipment companies (DMEs) can find you!
- Receive a badge showing you completed the workshop, which you can post on your website, print for your office, or post on social media, if you’d like.
- Receive 7 L-CERPs for the in-person workshop, and later you can request at least 6 additional L-CERPs for the bonus content (optional upgrade).
