About the Course: Your Code of Ethics requires you to hold the public health, safety and welfare paramount but in the course of your profession you may be faced with irreconcilable dilemmas that call in to question your moral values, conduct and character. What actions would you take if faced with conflict of interest, requests to seal plans you did not prepare, observing unethical behavior in your own workplace, or whistle-blowing? Do you know how you would dissent a management decision, protect the public from serious harm but avoid, if possible, damaging your career?
In this 2-hour interactive online course, standards of ethical conduct are examined in a variety of situations amply illustrated with case studies. The engineer will focus on ethical issues in contemporary professional practice by looking at a sampling of "real" ethical issues that other professionals sometimes face. Using the NSPE Code of Ethics for Engineers as a guide and applying the ethical decision making model, the engineer will examine some of the everyday complex issues of professional practice, such as whistle-blowing, confidentiality and gifts. There is a multiple choice test at the end of this course.
