What is one of the sections of the AICP Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct?

  1. Professional Development

  2. Conduct (Rule of)

  3. Public Engagement

  4. Economic Principles

The correct answer is: Conduct (Rule of)

The section of the AICP Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct that is focused on the ethical conduct expected from practitioners is indeed centered around "Conduct (Rule of)." This section outlines the principles and standards that define appropriate behavior and professional integrity within the planning profession. It emphasizes the importance of transparency, honesty, and accountability, highlighting how planners should conduct themselves in various situations. This foundation allows planners to maintain public trust and uphold the values of the profession. In contrast, while "Professional Development" might pertain to ongoing education and training for planners, it is not a direct section in the AICP Code of Ethics. "Public Engagement" focuses on involving the community in planning processes, which is crucial but does not specifically fall under the ethical conduct expected. "Economic Principles" relates to the economic aspects of planning but does not encompass ethical conduct as defined by the AICP Code.
