NCEES has launched an essential ethics training course for professional engineers and surveyors. The Ethics 101 course provides ethics training designed to meet continuing education requirements. The comprehensive online module offers foundational knowledge of professional ethics and standards of practice in the engineering and surveying professions.
Key topics include
- An overview of professional ethics fundamentals
- A review of the NCEES Model Law and Model Rules, with practical applications
- Codes of ethics from professional societies
- A review of the concept of standard of care and its legal implications
- Common ethical violations and disciplinary procedures
Through video instruction, case studies, and interactive activities, participants will develop practical skills for making ethical decisions in professional practice. The course is self-paced online learning that includes five segments featuring instructional video and interactive activities and is worth one hour of continuing education credit upon successful completion of 80 percent or higher on the final quiz. Course details and a completion certificate will be automatically loaded into the NCEES continuing professional competency (CPC) tracking service.
NCEES CEO Davy McDowell, P.E., shared, “As a licensed professional, you shoulder a considerable amount of responsibility. When ethical lapses or violations do occur, they can have great impacts. The course reflects our commitment as an organization to promote professional ethics among all engineers and surveyors.”
