Certification to validate professional development and skillset
 

Because of the educational and professional gaps that require more guidelines, standards of practice, accountability , role clarification and supervision at this point Licensure is a misleading terminology appears incongruent to expectations, training ,professional accountability and competence inherent in the word Licensure. This has already presented a new set of role confusion. Although many QMHP's have pursued advanced degrees this is not the expectation or most at this time.
