Postgraduate Certificate in Advanced Practice in Infant Mental Health and Wellbeing

Infancy is a critical period in a child’s life, during which early experiences can and do shape connections and relationships into adolescence and beyond. The University of Northampton’s Postgraduate Certificate in Advanced Practice in Infant Mental Health and Wellbeing is aligned with AIMH, enabling you to develop expertise in the field of infant mental health and wellbeing and offers you the opportunity to engage in critical debate, learning and discussions on the contemporary issues relating to the field. You will undertake a journey of self-reflection and critical exploration with professionals from a range of different backgrounds. You will be taught by expert researchers and practitioners in the field of infant mental health and wellbeing from a variety of disciplines. Your tuition fees include membership of AIMH for the duration of the course. This membership includes full access to all of the AIMH resources (including the latest research and reduced prices for events) as well as access to the CPD framework. You will also be able to, if you wish, to submit a portfolio of evidence for assessment by AIMH at the end of the infant mental health course. Successful completion and submission of this portfolio allows you to join the Infant Mental Health Register. Registration fees for AIMH apply after the course has completed.
