Although there are accepted industry standards, the doula industry is currently unregulated. This means that continuing education is not a requirement. Continuing education is Required  here at IDLM. We provide free continuing education to all of our students and graduates. 

Graduates are required to recertify every two year by completing 12 CE a year.

We charge $5 dollars for digital certificate and $10 for mailing paper certificate. Initial certificate is include at no fee upon graduation.  

We offer ongoing support for those seeking to create there own doula practice. All graduating students will be placed in our database for referrals.

For our larger certification courses, installment payments are an option at checkout.

Payment for classes happens automatically the moment you click “Submit” on the checkout page.

If you’re purchasing via an installment plan, the first payment will be due upon signing up for the course. Access to the final four (4) certification modules will be locked until all tuition is paid in full.

All of our classes – live or self paced – are final sale. Students who are unsure if a program is right for them are invited to book a discovery call with an IDLM team member prior to purchase. Additionally, free course previews are available and prospective students are encouraged to explore them to get a feel for the instructor and course material prior to purchase.
