We are excited to have our next Code of Ethics in July 2023!

The Code of Ethics for Youth Work in Aotearoa defines key values and standards for youth workers in Aotearoa. Developed around the six principles of the Youth Development Strategy Aotearoa, the Code is comprised of 27 clauses critical to effective, ethical youth work practice and practical examples of how they might apply in youth work.

It's not about what you can't do. It's about growing in solid youth development practice for our rangatahi and celebrating the unique and necessary approach that defines youth work.

The Code of Ethics for Youth Work in Aotearoa does not have a 'Treaty clause', instead a commitment to biculturalism is woven throughout the document. In order to have our Ethics Training better reflect this, we intend to hold our training at a marae. Don't be shy! We know some of our Youth Workers haven't had the opportunity to stay at a marae before, but there will be a lot of value for your personal and professional development by weaving this in with Ethics training.

Also, this training is a prerequisite for membership with the Rerenga Awa | Canterbury Youth Workers Collective.

Cost:

The price of this Code Of Ethics training is $70, which is thanks to external funding this has subsidised that from $240. If you feel that this price is still out of your range please get in touch to see how we can support you with this

Refunds:

These trainings are highly subsidised by the Department of Internal Affairs and without this sponsorship, each participant would need to pay $240 approx. Refunds are available through this ticketing system 7 days prior to training otherwise refunds would only be considered under significant circumstances. However, any registrant who does not attend and does not communicate with Rerenga Awa Staff will need to be invoiced for the full cost of the training.

COVID:

We are planning this event with all the required actions needed to keep everyone safe. This will include advising all that are attending to wear a mask, sanitize and keep at a safe distance.

You will receive all the important information in an email once you have purchased your ticket, however, if you do have any questions (or to check if you're a member), email us at admin@cywc.org.nz
