    Ethical Dilemmas and the APCDA Ethical Guidelines

    By Dr. Vandana Gambhir Chopra
    Recorded on Jan 21, 2021

    We face ethical dilemmas daily in our work.  Some situations are so familiar that we respond base on habit.  Others are so complex that we may avoid any response. In a recent poll, more than half of career practitioners described tension between supporting and challenging clients' goals as their most common ethical dilemma.  In all cases, comparing APCDA’s Ethical Guidelines to common ethical dilemmas prepares us to respond appropriately.  This webinar will include a review of parts of the Guidelines plus breaking into small groups to discuss ways of handling common ethical dilemmas.   Please consider submitting examples of ethical dilemmas from your own practice to the presenter.

    Cost: Free to Members, Non-members: High-income areas professional $10, Student $5; Not high-income professional $5, Student $2.50
