Question: The codes of ethics that guide the school counseling profession provide counselors with the standards for ethical practice. However, it may be necessary for a counselor to have to apply a combination of the codes of ethics when delivering counseling services to their students, as well as being mindful of FERPA guidelines to which schools must adhere. Comparing codes of ethics and integrating the standards of FERPA into professional practice is an essential skill for an ethical school counselor.
