A Certified Lactation Counselor certification is the premier National Certification in Lactation Management for the United States and is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The Lactation Counselor Training course is recognized by ANCC as a Nursing Skills Competency Program. CLC certification holders have demonstrated competence in essential lactation skills, knowledge and attitudes and have agreed to comply with The Academy of Lactation Policy and Practice code of ethics. CLCs are members of the health care team who can provide knowledge and counseling about optimal and sub-optimal breastfeeding, while recognizing that all decisions are made by the mother, who may have values and goals different from the counselor. A counseling approach is used to gather information and provide support to the mother and her family.
