While certification isn't mandatory for membership (as of now), I highly recommend pursuing a foundation course in lactation, such as Certified Lactation Counselor, Certified Lactation Specialist, or Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, etc.
This will equip you with valuable lactation knowledge to deepen your understanding and meaningfully contribute to the TLM Lactation Community.
