Ethics Education Series 2021 - Managing “Ethical Dilemmas"

Presenter: Viki Scott  - Bio

Session Description

As VR professionals we must be able to exercise effective decision-making skills by working through real-life ethical dilemmas.

VR professionals must develop skills to balance their roles as human service workers and actors in a legal framework and public policy system. Without specialized training, it can be difficult to understand one's “legal” roles, responsibilities and obligations.

This session will assist you with developing the requisite skills for applying ethical and legal decision-making to the kinds of situations you may encounter within your practice.
