Introduction to Business Ethics

This certificate verifies successful completion of the Introduction to Business Ethics course, led by Dr. Zachary Cleghorn of Star Global College of Workforce Development.

Participants explored the core principles of ethical leadership, including honesty, integrity, fairness, accountability, and respect. The course covered practical ethical decision-making frameworks—such as Utilitarian, Rights-Based, Justice, and Virtue Ethics—and applied them to real-world business dilemmas including whistleblowing, cultural conflicts, and the Volkswagen emissions case.

Students completed seven modules of content, reflection activities, and a final assessment to demonstrate their understanding of how to lead and influence with ethical clarity in diverse organizational settings.

This credential signifies a commitment to responsible leadership, professional integrity, and values-driven decision-making in today’s complex workplace.
