Are You Confident in Your Ethical Compass?


In the ever-evolving world of accountancy, a solid grounding in ethical principles isn’t just a regulatory requirement—it’s the foundation of trust, professionalism, and public confidence.


Join us for a practical and thought-provoking webinar aimed at UK accountants in practice, whether you’re newly qualified or in need of a timely refresher. This back to basics session will walk through the key ethical requirements set out by UK professional bodies, including the five fundamental principles (Integrity, Objectivity, Professional Competence and Due Care, Confidentiality, and Professional Behaviour), and how these apply to your everyday work.

 

Lindsay Webber will cover the following topics during this webinar: 


•  The core ethical obligations under professional standards (e.g. ICAEW, ACCA, etc.)

•  How to recognise ethical threats and apply appropriate safeguards

•  Insights from case studies—what went wrong, and how it could have been avoided

•  Practical tips to strengthen your ethical decision-making

 

Attend this session to refresh your knowledge of essential ethics requirements and ensure compliance and uphold your professional reputation.

 

This session will be of particular interest to accountants in practice.
