Description:	Public works employees must maintain their performance so that it results in public trust and confidence. Obtaining that trust filters into both official conduct and personal affairs. Find out how to balance this relationship and "give off the impression" that you have forged an ideal set of ethics for both yourself and your organization. Ethics are personal � how will you evaluate those grey areas? How do you make good decisions when there are no good choices? Participants, at the end of the program, will be able to: - Identify their ethical line and the importance of thinking through scenarios and being prepared to act ethically - Walk the talk with behaviors saying more about ethics than words. Seemingly small actions can have big and long-lasting consequences. - Represent yourself, your organization, your family and your profession understanding why ethical behavior is so important in today�s climate of mistrust of government and sensationalistic media. This program has been approved for .2 CEUs or 2 PDHs. The form to request these credits is included in the handouts for this program. Please note there is a $5 fee per individual requesting CEUs.
