For IBCLC applicants or IBCLCs who are audited, data about your coursework, whether or not CERP approved, is required. You can easily access information needed on IABLE courses and webinars:

• -For live events or enduring courses (eCourses), you will need your certificate of completion which has the # of hours of education and IBLCE content domains.
• -For live events, such as webinars or our annual conference, you will need a copy of the agenda.
• -For enduring courses (eCourses), you will need a copy of the course descriptions. All of these are accessible on our eCourse page.

Why isn't IABLE offering CERPs on purchases after 12/31/25?
IABLE stopped applying for CERPS for its educational programming as of January 2026, after determining that this was the best decision for the organization’s financial health as a nonprofit and its ability to offer equity pricing and low-cost programming.
According to the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners® (IBLCE®) Individual CERPs Guide for Recertification, Section IIIA, education that has been awarded educational credit by another board or organization may be counted as CERPs. All IABLE courses both live and enduring are awarded continuing education credits. Each CME credit could be counted as one CERP. There is no limit to the number of CMEs that can be counted as CERPs. 

For individuals who are applying for their initial IBCLC certification, all educational credits awarded to IABLE courses may be used for required lactation education hours.

Does IABLE provide CEUs?
We provide continuing medical education credits (CMEs) approved by the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP). According to the American Nurses Credentialing Center Certification (ANCC), the continuing education hours approved by the AAFP and AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ meet the requirement of formally approved continuing education hours and may be used as such for ANCC Certification renewal.

Because all state nurse licensing boards accept educational offerings that are approved by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), CMEs should be approved in all states for nursing credits. You can read more at https://www.nursingworld.org/certification/faqs/.

Can you add CEUs/nursing credit hours to my certificate?
No, if we did not apply for nursing credit hours, we cannot add them to your certificate. Instead, the ANCC states that CMEs from AAFP can be considered equivalent to nursing credits, so you need to report the CMEs to your Nursing Board.

How do I reset my IABLE account password?
This is a two-step process:
1) Please visit the password reset link and enter your username or email. This tells the system that you do not have your password, so it will reset it.

2) The website will send you an email with a link to another web page where you can reset your password. When you visit the page with the password reset, please wait 5 seconds and you will see a new password appear in the password field. This will be a strong password. Please copy the password to a safe place - it will not be emailed to you. Alternatively, you can put your own password into the form on the page, but the system won't allow a password which is weak.

3) After you reset your password, you will be presented with a link to login with your new password.
