Ethical Case Insights Part I: Disclosing, Standing Your Ground, and Dealing with Conflicts

Experience Level: Any level of experience

Join a panel of experts who will discuss three of the latest cases available in the NSPE’s Board of Ethical Review Cases. Panelists will examine the consequences of failure to disclose material information, standing your ground when you are not the Engineer in Responsible Charge, and dealing with conflicting duties. One of the most important aspects of the discussion will be around the formal dissent to one of the cases: It is a great demonstration of the need for conversation about ethics – there is not always a single right answer.  

1. Participants will be equipped to identify the consequences of failure to disclose material information.
2. Participants will be empowered to stand their ground when they are not the Engineer in Responsible Charge;
3. Participants will be able to evaluate conflicting duties and establish an approach to resolution.
