Video Course: Ethics Education

As health-care professionals we have made a professional promise to our clients and to society to behave ethically.

This course on ethics education focuses on several key questions that ethics educators need to consider and address, including: What should ethics education really be about? What are some of the basic concepts, distinctions, and principles we need to teach in ethics education? What is the relationship between law and ethics?
