Working ethically is a continuous demand on all practitioners in both their professional and private lives. Some ethical challenges are straightforward and are easily resolved. Other challenges are more difficult to determine when in seeking to act ethically, there seems to be competing obligations or principles. This code seeks to support the practitioner by identifying a variety of factors that influence ethical practice and to offer a variety of ways for the practitioner to consider various courses of action. No ethical code can ever cover every eventuality, nor can it lessen the difficulty of making a professional judgment in a changing and uncertain world. By accepting this code practitioners are committing themselves to the challenge of behaving ethically even when doing so requires courage in the face of moral dilemmas and difficult decisions.
