Exciting changes have been happening with Endorsement this year. Most notable is the elimination of the Family Reflective Supervisor Endorsement and the addition of the Endorsed Reflective Supervisor (ERS) add-on. This new add-on is available for professionals Endorsed as Family Specialists or Mental Health Specialists who provide or would like to provide qualifying Reflective Supervision/Consultation hours toward earning Endorsement to others. Mental Health Specialists can also now receive qualifying hours from any professional with the ERS add-on or Mental Health Mentor-Clinicals. Please see the chart below with additional information.
CT-AIMH is also now using the Question Mark system with the Alliance for the Advancement of Infant Mental Health for all Endorsement exam administration. Once an applicant is approved to sit for the exam, CT-AIMH will register that person through the Alliance. Applicants will be able to select the month that works best for them and the day during the exam week window that is most convenient. We are thrilled to have more flexibility and accessibility for exams for our applicants.
We are also offering open office hours for Endorsement weekly on Tuesday’s from 4-5 pm. The first Tuesday of the month will focus on Endorsement Orientation and Overview, the second and third will focus on providing support to anyone in progress for Endorsement, and the fourth Tuesday will focus on Exam preparation. All open office hours will be accessed using this zoom link:
