Future Workforce Programs
BBB Center for Character Ethics' future workforce programming has been designed to increase marketplace trust by providing practical character ethics and ethical habits training for educative serving our future workforce.
Recognition Programs
Middle and high school students write about what “laws” they believe are important to live by - principles such as courage, perseverance, forgiveness, and honesty. The best student essays from local Laws of Life Essay Contests in a BBB service area compete and are recognized and rewarded at a regional awards ceremony.
The Character Foundation of North Alabama, in coordination with the BBB of North Alabama, is offering this contest to North Alabama students. Our inaugural event is being planned for late Spring 2012.
An annual awards program that selects and honors high school students who personify high character through leadership, community service, overall personal integrity and academic history.
Now known as the “Students of Integrity” Scholarships, for the past 10 years, the BBB of North Alabama has been presenting scholarships to High School Students throughout North Alabama in recognition of their understanding of the value of strong ethical leadership that allows businesses to prosper and make their community a better place to live and do business along the way.
Research, Resources and Training
“In Pursuit of Ethics” generates in-depth discussion of ethical issues with group audiences. It offers reenactment of real-life situations where the audience sets the direction of the program by making decisions for the characters. With five different scenarios, “In Pursuit of Ethics” addresses ethical dilemmas that anyone might encounter. It is not another boring speech - it is interactive! All options have consequences…and they aren’t always predictable!
The Character Foundation of North Alabama will begin offering the In Pursuit of Ethics Training Modules in early 2012.
