During this session, participants will discuss the definition of ethics and explore both the ITE Canons of Ethics for Members and the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Professional Code of Ethics for Engineers. Participants will review similarities and differences between the two, reflect on which one best fit their personal code of conduct, and apply them to case studies published by the NSPE Board of Ethical Review (BER). This class will equip participants with the confidence to handle ethical situations that may arise in their professional careers. 

The rest of the workshop will review recent case studies published by the NSPE Board of Ethical Review. We will encourage group interaction to facilitate dialogue about ethical behavior in each situation. The facilitator will ask groups to report their opinion of the case and cite supporting sections in the ITE and NSPE Code of Ethics.  Finally, the groups will review the BER’s decisions on the cases.
