“…To this end, an essential yet often unnoticed or unacknowledged function of professional training and development is to immerse and integrate the trainee into the ethos of the profession (Rodríguez-Sedano, Rumayor, & Paris, 2011). However, extensive research shows that ethics curricula in professional training programs (including counselling) generally lack deliberate emphasis on ethos and virtue, and are instead focused on decision-making models, principles, and standards of care (Harrison & Khatoon, 2017;Hill, 2004b).…”

“…The definition of personal development has been difficult to clarify and has been the subject of extensive debate (Donati & Watts, 2005). However, from the perspective of the ethos of the profession, the key task of personal development is formation in the virtuesthe developed habits that both signify an individual's assent to the ethos, and also give that individual the ability to fulfil the ethos (Rodríguez-Sedano et al, 2011). Traditionally, this has been termed not as "development" but rather "formation", in that the training of the profession not only imparts knowledge and skills, but also has a role in shaping the habits that will constitute the persistent disposition of the professional throughout their practice (Jordan & Meara, 1990).…”

The publication of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia’s ([PACFA], 2017) Code of Ethics contains several features that are frequently absent from similar professional codes. Most notably, PACFA’s Code extends its professional requirements beyond the regular ethical standards for compliance and towards an articulation of the profession’s ethos through its commitment to clients, personal qualities of its members, and its acknowledgement of the complexity of practice. This theoretical paper explores the significance of the concept of ethos that has been articulated within PACFA’s Code, and considers how this concept might expand the research and practice agenda of educators and supervisors of counsellors and psychotherapists. The paper takes the position that the framework of virtue ethics provides a useful augmentation to the existing models of ethics, and uses this framework to explore models for professional identity development and personal character development in therapists.

Over the past two decades, the organisation of religious education classes in Switzerland has undergone profound reforms. Amid the increasing secularisation and pluralisation of the religious landscape, many cantons have introduced a compulsory course that falls under the responsibility of the state and is aimed at teaching basic knowledge about a variety of religions. These reforms have enabled a harmonisation of the syllabi for religious education across the country and have prompted the adaptation of teacher training programmes. Because of the many diverse social expectations surrounding these new courses and the diverse academic traditions in the field of religious education, however, a unified conception of these courses is still absent. In this article, we discuss the ongoing construction of religious education teachers' professional ethos within this fluid context. In particular, we discuss the perspective of teacher trainers on pragmatic questions concerning religious plurality and the place of teachers' and pupils' personal (religious) experiences in the classroom, and pay attention to different representations of 'religion' and distinct ideas regarding the purpose of these courses as they have a major impact on the professional attitudes expected from teachers.

The purpose of this paper is to look at the Aminuddin Baki's Torch Movement Speech (Ceramah Gerakan Obor) from the critical theory of metaphorical perspective. The study of metaphor is considered important because it has been used by many speech writers, authors, and CEOs in big organisations to strengthen the impact of their speeches. Metaphors are used to amplify meanings in one's speech. The objective of the study is to identify the type of metaphors employed and how the metaphors are conveyed within the Torch Movement Speeches. The study also hopes to identify the direction of metaphor used in terms of positive, negative or neutral which is predominant in the speech. Numerous studies have been done on the biographical portion of Aminuddin Baki but not of the particular speeches he had made on the progression of the natives in Malaysia as a whole. The late Aminuddin Baki was known as a man of great purpose and was committed to seeing the advancement of Malaysians in education. This study used a qualitative method through a rhetorical analysis of one of Aminuddin Baki's Torch Movement speech. Using Neo-Aristotelian Criticism perspective in the analysis of speech, this study demonstrates the relevance in the application of ancient Malay metaphor in modern day communication interaction among the people.
