This Code is designed to serve notice to the public that members will assume the obligation of self-discipline above and beyond the requirements of law and that members will maintain a high level of ethics and professional service. The public is hereby informed that they are at liberty to officially report consultants who are in their opinions fell short of expectations and agreements of their contracts and shall be supported to seek redress. The Body enforces the Code by receiving and investigating all complaints of violations and by taking disciplinary action, including censure, suspension, or revocation of membership against any member who is found guilty of Code violation or who willfully supports the practice of Code violation.

It is a desire for the respect and confidence of the tourism and hospitality industry and of our society that should motivate the consultant or member to maintain the highest possible ethical conduct.

The loss of that respect and confidence is the ultimate sanction.

In recognition of the public interest in their obligation to the profession, members of the Body hereby agree in writing to comply with the documented articles of professional conduct below.
