An opportunity to hear about the outcomes of the Voxiberation and to ask any questions about the proposed changes to the Code of Professional Conduct
Carrying out periodic reviews of a professional association's code of conduct is an important element of good governance. With this in mind, in the spring of 2024, the Board initiated a review of ITI's Code of Professional Conduct and the process for responding to potential breaches.
It quickly became clear that a lot has changed since the code was last updated, not least technology, and so we concluded that it would be wise to start afresh with a blank sheet. So over the summer we convened a small working group to take part in a series of roundtables and their ideas were used to inform an initial draft of the new Code.
In March 2025 we gave a wider group of members the opportunity to discuss the draft Code of Conduct as part of our Coffee House sessions, with a view to fine-tuning the version that will be presented to members for approval at the ITI’s AGM in October.
During August we will be using an online deliberation platform (Voxiberate) to consult with members on three of the new elements that may be introduced into the Code.
Join us at this drop-in session to find out about the outcome of the Voxiberation and to ask any questions that you have about the proposed changes ahead of the AGM.
