Course description
Behaving ethically is at the heart of what it means to be a professional; it distinguishes professionals from other in the marketplace. RICS rules of conduct are mandatory for all members so you must familiarise with them.
Conduct rules, ethics and professional practice is a level 3 competency and there is a significant emphasis on it during the interview. You can be referred on professional practice and ethics alone so you must be able to demonstrate your competence on the required level.
This two-part session is designed to provide you with examples of questions and scenarios that assessors will use when reviewing this key competency. The classes will be very interactive and will allow you to ask questions and seek advice on your own experiences in this competency.
Part one will look at Rules of Conduct and Money Laundering and will briefly summarise the key aspects of the Bribery Act 2010 and part two will focus on Professional and Ethical standards.
