HPA is fully committed to conducting all activities in strict
conformance with the American Psychological Association's Ethical
Principles of Psychologists. HPA will comply with all legal and
ethical guidelines for non-discrimination in promotional activities,
program content and in the treatment of CE participants. The HPA
CE Program Chair is responsible for complying with these standards.
While HPA strives to assure fair treatment for all participants and
to anticipate problems before they occur, occasionally grievances may
be filed. In cases where a participant files a written or oral grievance,
the following actions are taken:
* If the grievance concerns the content of the workshop, webinar,
book, or a continuing education test, an HPA representative will
mediate and will be the final arbitrator. If the participant requests
action, the CE Chair or an HPA representative will either
provide a credit for a subsequent CE offering or provide a partial
or full refund of the CE fee already paid.
* Actions involving a credit or a refund will require a written note
documenting the grievance for record-keeping purposes. The
aggrieved individual need not sign the note. If the grievance
specifically concerns HPA, the CE Director or HPA
representative will attempt to arbitrate.
