guidelines for behavior. This may not involve formal enforcement.

5 Main Categories of Principles

- Fundamental Principles - Responsibilities to the Public - Responsibilities to Clients - Responsibilities to the Profession - Responsibilities to Colleagues and other Professions

A Code of Ethics:

- Is a set of rules for practitioner behavior. - Is a statement of behavioral norms for a profession or a community of shared values. - Can help practitioners work through an ethical practice dilemma or issue.*** - Can help build a public trust in the activities of a profession.

Regulatory codes

These codes include a detailed set of rules to govern professional conduct. They serve as a basis for settling grievances either between members and/or nonmembers.

An example is the Police Officer's Code of Conduct.
