On Saturday, May 25, 2103, Paula Boutis gave a presentation at the 2013 conference for the Association of Early Childhood Educators Ontario on the “Code of Ethics and the Discipline Process” (pdf).
In 2007, Early Childhood Educators were recognized as members of a profession. With that, came the obligation to self‑regulate the membership. In 2011, the profession established a Code of Ethics. Paula’s presentation gave an overview of how the standards of the profession are enforced and what members can expect during a complaint investigation and discipline process.
