Student / Volunteer Registration
We are proud supporters of individuals & organizations focused on lactation support health care. Our aim with offering Student rates is to acknowledge their need to receive the education they need at a price that is affordable. Please review the criteria and eligibility requirements below to see if you qualify for this unique registration category.
- Applies only to volunteer counsellors of non-profit peer support organizations like LLL, ABA, and AIMI that are currently not making ANY income working within the maternal-child field and current full time students of an accredited post-secondary institution.
- This option does NOT apply to IBCLC's who are also peer-to-peer breastfeeding counsellors. Any individuals who work in a professional capacity as an IBCLC, regardless of their level of income, are expected to purchase a full price registration. The Student/Volunteer Price is meant as way to help educate and reward individuals who are volunteers or students only and who do not carry out lactation work in a professional capacity.
- This option does NOT apply to individuals currently working in a health care field or in any other field and only taking part time education.
- This option does NOT apply to unemployed individuals who are not a full time student at an accredited post secondary institution.
- Proof of status as a student is required at the time of registration. When prompted, please upload a copy of your letter of confirmation from a supervisor or director, or letter of acceptance of enrollment in a full time course in your field of study.
