POLICY

ARMA International will communicate its professional values to all practitioners, stakeholders, and the public through a Code of Professional Responsibility.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

1.     The Code is not regulatory in intent and has no sanctions of its own.

2.    The Code is a guide to reflection, decision making, and action in two broad areas of ethical concern: society and the profession (see Pol 3-003 Ex A).

3.    Principles of the Code may be considered in conjunction with infractions under ARMA International’s procedural guidelines for disciplinary action (see POL 3-005).
