- EXPANDING THE REACH OF THE ETHICS COURSE INTO LEVEL ONE TEACHER TRAININGS
Sat Nam Dear Trainers,
We wish to bring your attention to the EPS’ Anti-Harassment and Ethics Course and would like to encourage you to recommend it to your teachers-in-training: for you Trainers it is an easy way to fulfill the Ethics requirement and it is a helpful tool for teachers to dive deeper into the KRI Code of Ethics.
We have framed the course between a prologue and a final survey to support a gentle entry into the material and to invite reflection and feedback, so the course can evolve in alignment with the needs of our global community.
Discover the prologue HERE. We hope its message resonates with you.
In service, Sat Nam, Manjot Singh Khalsa, executive director of SSSC Office of Ethics & Professional Standards (EPS)
