Ethics: In the News

by Anna Faherty

Part of a series on 2024-25 ethical updates. This short course shares some of the ethical stories that have been in the news this year, while considering how and why each came about. How could they impact your day-to-day working life?

This module will enable you to

  • Define cultural relativism and its impact on ethics
  • Recognise ethical issues facing the auditing profession
  • Identify ways to encourage internal whistleblowing

About the module

From students sharing answers to corporations dodging taxes, ethics breaches often hit the headlines. Stories of scandal, fraud and cheating are always big news, but it can be hard to relate to them.

This short course focuses on how these stories can inform our day-to-day working lives and our approach to tackling ethical dilemmas and threats that come up with our own organisations and clients.
