ETHICS AND PROFESSIONALISM
Course: FAM0019
Understanding the foundations of ethical thinking involving different perspectives and rationale for decision-making within a behavioural framework is essential when working with ASD clients. Students are introduced to professional codes of ethics that are essential for ethical practice. They learn how to think critically and apply general ethical principles to particular situations using case studies, practice vignettes, structured exercises and group discussions. Students are provided with the basis for developing ethical guidelines for practice, examining areas related to legislative acts, an overview or the BACB guidelines of responsible conduct for a Behaviour Analyst and the ONTABA standards of practice. Students also learn to evaluate their own professional expertise and limitations for ongoing professional development planning.
