Endorsement Examination

Infant Mental Health Mentor and Early Childhood Mental Health Mentor applicants are required to pass a written examination following portfolio approval.   

Examination Preparation Resources

In preparation for the Pennsylvania Association of Infant Mental Health’s Endorsement for Culturally Sensitive, Relationship-Focused Practice Promoting Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health (IMH-E® or ECMH-E®) Exam a list has been prepared of recommended readings that we believe are essential for infant mental health practitioners and providers of reflective supervision/consultation.  Thank you to MI-AIMH all all other state associations who have contributed to the development of this resource list!
 
Please keep in mind that it is impossible to include all of the written materials that provide a solid foundation for understanding and promoting infant mental health! It is equally important to remember that each infant mental health professional builds a personal knowledge base over time and in relationship to specific work experiences and challenges, i.e., clinical case work, home visiting practice, supervisory role, training, teaching, and research. Finally, and perhaps most important, the integration of knowledge into one’s best practice takes place within the context of regularly scheduled reflective supervision/consultation experiences.
