WORKSHOPS
IN ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES AND ETHICS AND CERTIFICATE
PROGRAM
In the past
few years there have been many dynamic changes in the
public and private sectors caused by globalization,
demographic changes in the workplace, recruitment and
retention issues, consumer and social scrutiny of organizational
responsibilities, rapid innovations in products and
services, and technological advancement. Overall these
changes have created flatter and leaner organizational
structures to respond quickly to environmental changes.
As a consequence there is more teamwork, delegation,
and empowerment of employees, and less rules and procedures
to guide our actions. The workshops in organizational
values and ethics will be of interest to anyone who
must manage in a less rule oriented environment. The
focus in these workshops is on the role of values and
ethics in developing a climate of trust, in building
and harnessing interdependency, and in creating an organization
which recognizes and responds to ethical issues in a
timely manner.

THE
ETHICS NETWORK
The Ethics
Network, as part of its mandate, seeks to provide a
bridge between those working in specialized areas of
ethics or political philosophy and those who are working
in public policy. Four of the central aims of The Ethics
Network are: to explore connections between public policy
decisions and ethics; to disseminate the results in
a fashion that achieves a balance between standards
appropriate to the relevant academic disciplines and
standards that allow the material as wide an audience
as possible
to forge links between researchers within, and outside
of, the Ryerson community, who have interests in the
normative implications of public policies; to emphasize
the variety of different perspectives that may exist
with respect to any topic where normative and ethical
considerations overlap with public policy questions.
Areas of interest of the Ethics Network: Media Ethics,
Health Care Ethics, Business Ethics, Intellectual Property
Ethics.

DEPARTMENT

Diploma
In Ethics
http://www.uwo.ca/philosophy/index.htm
The Diploma
in Ethics, offered through the University of Western
Ontario, Department of Philosophy, is being offered
as a response to a wide and growing interest in the
ethical dimensions of professional and public life.
The purpose of this program is to enable participants
to strengthen and develop their understanding of ethics
so as to enhance their ability to recognize and respond
to ethical issues in a wide variety of social settings.
The Diploma in Ethics will educate students in the essential
concepts, central issues, history, and methodologies
of ethical reasoning. The program also emphasizes the
development of critical thinking skills, writing skills
and verbal skills. The Diploma in Ethics is a post-undergraduate
program of study that may be completed full-time in
one year or part-time over a number of years
CERTIFICATE IN ETHICS
http://www.uwo.ca/philosophy/index.htm
The Department
of Philosophy already offers a Certificate in Ethics
available for students to take concurrently with their
bachelor’s degrees. These programs in Ethics are
designed as a response to a wide and growing interest
in the ethical dimensions of professional and public
life.
The purpose of the program is to enable participants
to strengthen and develop their understanding of ethics
and, in particular, to enhance their ability to recognize
and respond to ethical issues in a wide variety of social
and professional settings. The Certificate in Ethics
will educate students in the essential concepts, central
issues, history, and methodologies of ethical reasoning.
The program also emphasizes the development of critical
thinking skills, writing skills and verbal skills. Internationally,
there exist a number of certificate and diploma programs
in ethics. However, the only similar program being offered
in Canada at this time is a Certificate in Practical
Ethics at York University, taken by students at the
same time as their bachelor’s degree. We believe
that there is room in Southern Ontario for another Certificate
in Ethics program, and that such a program would respond
to a demand among Western undergraduates.
