Welcome to Core Module 3 "Infant Formula Feeding"

Introduction
Not all infants are exclusively breastfed for the recommended 4-6 month period. In such cases, infant formula of high quality is considered the only suitable breast milk substitute. Having a broad understanding of infant formula feeding practices including standard guidelines, composition, correct preparation and potential associated risks will help to ensure that formula-fed infants thrive and have the best possible start in life. This module aims to provide an overview of infant formula and outline the most important aspects associated with infant formula feeding.

How to best follow this module
For your own coordination and scheduling: To go through this entire
module which contains four units, you will need about 560 minutes
(around 100-180 minutes for each unit). Downloading further literature
or using our integrated links will take additional time.
Every
unit consists of a self-assessment test at the beginning, different
lessons and a final knowledge test at the end. During the course of the module, the
learner will benefit from a number of learning tools, including
self-assessment tests, graphics, expert videos, a discussion forum and
an online case-based training.
To make better use of the teaching
material and consequently a better learning experience overall, we
suggest that the learner first should go through the units, follow by
the case-based training and only after that she or he should attempt the
final knowledge tests.
