Unethical conduct by prominent individuals in various professions from government to business, from teaching to architecture, is constantly being reported in the news. In a time when our moral foundations are continually being questioned, what tools do architects have to deal with ethical dilemmas?
In this 4 hour online course, standards of ethical conduct are examined in a variety of situations amply illustrated with case studies. The architect 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 AIA Code of Ethics as a guide and applying the ethical decision making model, the architect will examine some of the everyday complex issues of professional practice, such as conflicts of interest, whistle-blowing, safety, confidentiality and gifts.
This course includes a multiple-choice quiz to test your understanding of the material.
