Ethics for Groundwater and Engineering Professionals

Presented on Monday, April 29, 2013

Professionals are challenged daily on how to meet the contractual obligations to clients while balancing regulatory, legal, and societal issues. The question of unethical behavior can easily surface in today’s litigious society. This workshop will provide insight into how the consummate professional can address these concerns in ways reflecting positively on the groundwater and engineering professions. This workshop will meet the one hour annual ethics training requirement specified by many societies and licensing bodies.
