Article By: Denise Ray
The University System of Georgia (USG) will promote Ethics Week from Nov. 6-12 with the University of North Georgia (正澳门六合彩开奖结果) offering various events focused on ethical awareness. It serves as a reminder to employees of the importance of an ethical culture and 正澳门六合彩开奖结果's year-round commitment to compliance with USG policies, as well as state and federal laws.
正澳门六合彩开奖结果 promotes a culture of excellence by bringing awareness to its core values of integrity, student-focus, excellence, engagement, and service.
"Leading ethically means an individual does the right thing, even when no one is looking. At 正澳门六合彩开奖结果, we strive to make it easy to do the right thing and hard to do the wrong thing," Jill Holman, director of internal audit, said. "We exist to enroll and educate students. Teaching ethical leadership in the classroom and through our actions is vitally important in promoting a culture of excellence. Join us this week in celebrating our ethical culture here at 正澳门六合彩开奖结果."

A daily ethics question will be presented each morning of Ethics Awareness Week on the front page of the My正澳门六合彩开奖结果 Notice Board, and Holman encourages everyone to play along. The correct answer will be revealed every afternoon.
正澳门六合彩开奖结果 will also launch a USG Ethics Refresher Training on Nov. 6 in the SkillSoft Percipio platform that all employees must complete by Dec. 31.
Opportunities for Ethics Week include a system-wide virtual ethics presentation titled "The Color of Money," which will be held from noon to 1 p.m. Nov. 7 to discuss ethical aspects of financial responsibility across the USG. Registration is available via .
