Ethics and Ethical Standards for Psychologists in Canada is a comprehensive CPD course designed for psychologists practising across Canada, including those working in private practice, hospitals, community services, and academic settings. It is particularly relevant for professionals seeking to strengthen ethical decision-making, maintain high professional standards, and deliver safe, patient-centred care within the expectations of provincial regulatory colleges.

This course is especially valuable for psychologists who are facing complaints, investigations, or professional concerns, or who are required to demonstrate insight, reflection, and remediation as part of a regulatory process. It explores common ethical challenges such as confidentiality breaches, dual relationships, boundary violations, and issues relating to consent and documentation, all within the context of professional and legal expectations in Canada.

Through practical scenarios, regulator-informed guidance, and structured reflective exercises, participants will develop the skills needed to navigate complex ethical dilemmas, respond appropriately to concerns, and embed ethical principles into everyday psychological practice. By the end of this course, psychologists will be better equipped to demonstrate accountability, cultural safety, and ethical integrity in their professional work.
