After reviewing the list of NASPA and ACPA professional competencies, I am most competent in the areas of Leadership, and Student Learning and Development. Nevertheless, I feel as though I can improve on Values, Philosophy, and History, and Assessment, Evaluation, and Research.

It is important to ensure that we meet the need of the students on every level. One effective way to do this is to observe, assess, and record children’s efforts and progress. In this way, an educator can prepare to help a child’s progression in the class. Being able to track and refer to the progress of a child helps to ensure greater levels of success. In the end, our program is only as successful as the children in our care. Record keeping can identify areas that need improvement, and allows us to teach to their strong points.

The three formulas of credibility is competence, caring, and character. Competence: this will tell you if the person can do the job. Most of this is determined by what they have done in the past with their current job or previous jobs. Caring: this is a culture that is established by you. For someone to lead, they have to care about others. Character: this is when someone has higher standards for their tam and themselves. You have to be trust worthy; you have to follow through on what you say you are going to do.

They understand the value in ethical and professional behavior and the impact it has on their work. Social workers must maintain the highest form of ethical practice because of their intense work in the community. Social workers use NASW Code of Ethics to help them make the most ethical decision because they often hold a lot of weight. Social workers also know how to differentiate their personal beliefs even when in difficult situations. They do not mix their values as a social worker with their values as a person and therefore do not let their beliefs affect their work. Social workers understand the importance of maintaining professional behavior because it can affect their

Working in the education system as a school counselor is my preference. I am passionate about social awareness and helping students. I’ve always been sure that I would be a counselor. When I made my mind up to go back for an advanced degree, I decided to get it in the field of education. After speaking to a professor in the counselor education program at college and discussed my interests with them. I knew that day I wanted to change my major to school counseling. I like the ideal of being a school counselor because I believe I can be a vital member of the education team.

Ethics is a comprehension of the way of contentions emerging from good goals and how best we may manage those (Noble, 2007). Morals does not choose what is ethically right or wrong; rather it considers how we ought to act better in the light of our obligations and commitments as moral agents (Noble, 2007). We are all molded by our own encounters, recollections, feelings, and learning influencing our observations, thinking and judgment of individuals and circumstances. These elements contribute to a person’s worldview, professional philosophy, and moral compass- the ability to judge wrong and right and act accordingly. The purpose of this paper is to describe this author’s professional moral compass, which is coordinated by different inspirations, interests, and values.

When evaluating practice with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities, it is necessary that Competency 2: Ethical Practice and Competency 3: Critical Thinking are taken into consideration. Competency 2 requires that social workers are able to recognize and manage personal values in a way that allows professional values to guide practice. Competency 3 requires social workers to demonstrate effective oral and written communication in working with individuals, families, groups, communities, organizations, and colleagues. By following these competency skills, a social worker is able to evaluate their experience with these different populations without being bias, and can display diversity within the profession of social work.

Patient confidentiality is one thing that cannot be breached nor as a patient that you would want to be breached. In this day and age as healthcare professionals it is a very fine line of what breaching confidentiality is. We all want to know that when we are sick and in the hospital, the one thing that we can keep personal is our privacy which would include our health information. It is hard to imagine that in a state of vulnerability that some things must be disclosed to certain departments regardless of your desire to keep it private

It was by accident that I became a student services professional. My undergraduate experiences started in the College of Business and ended in Family and Child Studies. After some self-evaluation and events out of my control, I decided Business was no longer what I wanted to do. The very moment that changed it all for me was shortly after my mother became a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteer and I finally met one of the families she was advocating for. There was an instant connection with one of the teenage daughters. Things clicked for me once I realized she was looking up to me as a role model. I was always drawn to experiences that were holistically oriented so I spoke with my advisor to see what other avenues I could take. At that time, I was introduced to Family and Child Studies which led me to venture into a Bachelors of Science in Marriage and Family.

It’s my absolute pleasure to nominate Blerim Cukovic to receive the College of Staten Island Dolphin Award, 2017.

Congrulations! You have been offered the position of an Assistant Director in student affairs. As the Assistant Director in student affairs, there is still much to be done to help students succeed. Nova Southeastern Univeristy is a pleasant university. They offer several degree programs and a majority of students enjoy the virtual concept Nova Southeastern Univeristy has put in place for students who are not able to attend class in a traditional setting. So, what are student affairs? I believe a student affair is a critical aspect of the higher education experience. The work done by student affairs professionals helps students begin a lifetime journey of growth and self-exploration (NASPA. (n.d.).

Trey is a kindergarten child who is occasionally having problems with enuresis. Trey’s mother had enuresis during her youth as well. She has made it clear that she does not want her son to get any medical help and does not want him to feel ashamed. However, the teacher recognized the problem which is creating odor, stigma, and disruption in the classroom. The teacher wants Trey to get help, which is opposite of the mother. Both the mother and teacher are people involved in the case, however neither of them are the client. According to the textbook, “Becoming an Ethical Helping Professional: Cultural and Philosophical Foundations” written by Rita Sommers-Flanagan and John Sommers-Flanagan (2015), a client is the one who is in need of assistance.

According to Johnson (2012) leaders are powerful role models, and policies will have a little effect if leaders do not follow the rules they set. In Enron case, corruption and ethical misconduct were deeply embedded in their business culture where profitability was more important than ethics. In this paper, I will address the factors that had led to the development of the culture of profit before principle at Enron. Also, I will create my personal code of ethics that will guide me in my professional and personal decision making and doing the right thing when faced with ethical challenges.

Ethics by definition are defined as a set of moral rules of conduct that are accepted by general public and should be obeyed by everyone. Ethics are essential to the architecture of a modern dynamic society and play a vital part in engineering or any other businesses. Ethics provide guidance to humans to pursue a course of action correctively in specific situations, and prevent us from the ones that would have negative or drastic consequences. Ethics clarifies what is good and bad on the basis of moral principle or values. Regardless of which particular field the engineer is in (e.g. civil, electrical or mechanical), their main liability and responsibility are to ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of the public are protected to the highest level possible. Since almost the work done by engineers can have great impact on almost all aspects of our daily life, any design schemes or implementations that are made by engineers must meet the highest standard to ensure that no damages or potential damages to any resource, people, organization or environment will exist. Many organizations, like the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ) have established a set of code of ethics to
