Understand how the Code sets certified planners apart from others by focusing on integrity, the appearance of fairness, and a commitment to supporting fair and just communities.

Following an overview of the Code of Ethics and a summary of two real-life cases from 2024, the game begins. In this game show players are given an answer and must respond with the question. Participants use their smart phones to easily access the Code for immediate and future reference. Players are sharp and prompt as they respond to clues displayed on a screen.

  • Apply the Code to situations that planners face every day.
  • Achieve Ethics Certification Maintenance credits in a fun game that demonstrates the Code’s accessibility and use as a guide to everyday practice.
