Code of Ethics for Techs/Admins
I personally believe it is past time for a Code of Ethics for technicians and administrators.
I believe adherance to a carefully constructed Code of Ethics and the publication of such could only enhance the view the public has of techs/admins.
This Code could include clear statements of what we will do and will not do, not only in a business environment but as contractors and/or service industry employees available to the general public.
We might consider a Professional Association that promotes honest, dependable, and ethical actions as mainstays of the Association.
It could serve to reassure a doubting public as to what to expect not only from the tech down at Joe's Computer Shop but also what to expect from their techs and admins at work.
I hope to hear others ideas on formation of such an Association.
