This is a 4-hour interactive training program designed specifically for probation personnel and peace officers. Through facilitated discussion, self-reflection, practical exercises, and probation-specific scenarios, participants will explore the ethical responsibilities associated with public service and the critical role ethics plays in maintaining public trust, organizational credibility, and professional integrity.

The course examines factors contributing to ethical misconduct, including rationalization, organizational culture, bullying, retaliation, and failures of accountability. Participants will learn a practical ethical decision-making model, discuss the duty to intervene and report misconduct, and evaluate the responsibilities of employees, supervisors, and leaders in fostering a healthy and accountable workplace culture. Emphasis is placed on truthfulness in reports, investigations, testimony, and professional interactions, while reinforcing the importance of courageous leadership, personal accountability, and ethical decision-making in probation operations. Through realistic probation-based scenarios, students will apply course concepts to situations involving workplace culture, integrity, reporting obligations, supervisory accountability, and professional responsibility.
