| S.T.A.B.L.E. LEARNER COURSE STUDENT STATISTICS - CLASSROOM PARTICIPANTS |
| With the launch of the student roster program January 1, 2001, we have been able to track student participation in the Learner Course. These numbers are based upon submitted rosters worldwide since January 2001 through November 02, 2026. Your teaching contributions are improving the knowledge base of maternal/child healthcare providers everywhere! This education inevitably translates to the bedside everyday when working with both sick and well babies. Ultimately we hope to see a reduction in infant morbidity and mortality, improved outcomes and most importantly improved quality of life for sick infants and their families! |
