Why do professionals and professions need an Ethical Code? AFP’s Code of Ethics is a living document and baseline that provides structure, guidance and support – for all of these. 

Participants will review and explore the new code and all the supporting resources available for individuals and their organizations to use to develop a deeper understanding of applying and implementing the code in personal and organizational practice.

Using interactive cases and group activities, Participants will apply the code – and discuss why there are very few “cut and dried” solutions. The case study will focus on AI and its ethical impacts on your work and your organization.

Full participation in AFP’s New Code of Ethics - What Is It … What Can It Do For Me?: AI and Its Impacts is applicable for 1 point in Category 1.B -Education of the CFRE International application for initial certification and/or recertification.
