Code of Professional and Ethical Behaviors in The School of Education and Human Services

The Molloy University School of Education Code of Ethics is adopted from the New York State Code of Ethics for Educators, which is a public statement by educators that sets clear expectations and principles to guide practice and inspire professional excellence. Educators believe a commonly held set of principles can assist in the individual exercise of professional judgment. This Code speaks to the core values of the profession. All candidates are expected to subscribe to the code of professional and ethical behaviors. Their adherence to the code of ethics will be evaluated throughout educational practica by field supervisory faculty and clinical faculty. Each candidate must seriously assume the above responsibilities to maintain good standing in the Educator Preparation Program. Failure to do so many result in dismissal from the program.
