The competency areas in this crosswalk meet IMH-E®/ECMHE® training and renewal requirements.  To see the associations that are using the Endorsement credential, view the Members of the Alliance at https://www.allianceaimh.org/competency-guidelines. 

It is important to note that you MUST live in a place where the local association has licensed the Endorsement from the Alliance in order to apply for Endorsement.  Once you confirm that your local association has licensed the credential, you will contact that association’s Endorsement Coordinator to begin the Endorsement process.  In your conversation with the Endorsement Coordinator, inform them you have the Infant Massage USA Certification Training crosswalk.  They will outline the next steps for you to follow regarding the crosswalk which will allow you to streamline your application!
