9.4.1 Breaches of Professional Behavior
Learners are expected to adhere to the professional behavior standards outlined in the Professional Behavior section of the Program Manual. When behaviors do not meet acceptable standards, depending on the nature and severity of the infraction and the setting within which it occurs, one or more of the following actions may be taken at the discretion of the Faculty of the Program.
In the academic setting, course faculty or the Program Director may notify the student about inappropriate behaviors with either an oral or written warning. If inappropriate behaviors are cited on subsequent occasions, faculty may choose to further discuss the incident with the student, convene an academic review meeting, or the incident may be reported to the program for action. Action may include suspension or dismissal from the program (see below). Further information on guidelines for conduct and procedures related to disciplinary action are delineated in the Institute Catalog.
