Endorsement Application System

Welcome to the PA-AIMH online endorsement system.  Here are a few tips to consider before you proceed:

• PA-AIMH is an all-volunteer board, therefore there is a DELAY in response to new applications, support tickets, application reviews, etc.
• Each new application is administratively accepted by the Endorsement Coordinator- PLEASE BE PATIENT FOR A RESPONSE!
• Additional Information:
  
• Don't forget one must be a PA-AIMH member to complete the endorsement process. You can now purchase or renew your membership during your EASy registration process!  
• When you register, please use a personal email address.  Work related emails tend to have firewalls that restrict EASy communications.
• Choose the Right Category. Please review the At-A-Glance document (http://www.pa-aimh.org/imh-and-ecmh-endorsement-requirements.html) to help determine which category of Endorsement fits your scope of work in the field.
• PA-AIMH strongly recommends uploading your Resume/CV

Endorsement® is not a professional license or a certificate.  PA-AIMH Endorsement® cannot guarantee the quality of service of any endorsed professional.  PA-AIMH Endorsement®  does not include a process by which complaints or concerns regarding ethics can be filed.  If PA-AIMH becomes aware of possible ethics violations by an endorsed professional, complainants are encouraged to, when applicable, contact the individual's professional licensing board.  The PA-AIMH Endorsement® does not offer monitoring for ethics violations, however if PA-AIMH learns that an endorsed professional has been sanctioned by a licensing board, the individual’s name is moved to the Inactive Endorsement® Registry.  Those professionals will follow the policy for reactivation to the Active Endorsement® Registry once the licensing board’s sanctions have been lifted.

RENEWALS: Due on or before 12/31 of each calendar year.
