Aims of the Professional Ethics Course - To give you the ability to approach ethical issues logically, confidently and with an understanding of the philosophical principles which underpin the Canons as well as a thorough working knowledge of the Code itself, and any other Bar Council guidance. - To ensure that you leave the course with a complete understanding of how far a healthy justice system depends upon the ethical assumptions and behavior of those who participate in it, particularly in the context of the adversarial system of justice which is productive of enormous pressure and temptation to cut corners upon the practitioners and support services at work within it. - To assist you in developing the personal and professional values and standards that should stay with you throughout the rest of your career. - To teach you professional ethics in a practical context so that when you are in practice and encounter ethical problems, you have a clear understanding of what to do and where to go for help. The course will concentrate upon three main areas as follows: 1) Awareness 2) Thinking skills 3) Knowledge Awareness However well you know the Canons, your knowledge is useless unless you are able to identify and deal appropriately with an ethical issue when it arises. This skill of being able to analyse a problem and identify matters which may cause you professional difficulties is developed on the course. For this reason, you will find that ethical issues are not always ‘signposted’ but are embedded in other areas that are being covered. Thinking skills The development of thinking skills, or ethical analysis, is important. You need to be able to understand and apply the underlying ethical principles to a complex problem when in practice so that you can effectively apply the Canons and deal with situations which the Canons does not cover. Skills such as the ability to use ‘paradigms’ (comparing the problematic situation with other situations (paradigms) where is it clearer what should be done) are essential and you will be encouraged to view professional ethics as an active and continuing challenge rather than a passive and finite undertaking. Knowledge You clearly need a thorough working knowledge of the Canons, and any other guidance issued by the Bar Council. You will also learn about which kinds of ethical issues are likely to be important to: - professional clients - lay clients - people from different socio-economic and cultural backgrounds with whom you may have to deal with. Finally, the knowledge part of the course will examine the way in which others have dealt with ethical issues in order to develop your own problem solving strategies.
