About This Course

While many of us are aware of our intellectual and emotional intelligence, ethical intelligence is just as critical—yet often overlooked. This course explores the concept of ethical intelligence and why even well-intentioned professionals sometimes make poor decisions that conflict with their values. Through engaging discussion and reflection, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how ethical blind spots can arise and how to recognize and avoid them.

Using a powerful real-world case study, the course demonstrates how a seemingly minor lapse in judgment can escalate into a full-blown scandal with lasting consequences. You'll leave with practical tools to strengthen your ethical awareness, make better decisions, and protect your personal and professional integrity.

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
