UKCISA/AISA Code of Ethics for those advising international students

The UKCISA/AISA Code of Ethics is intended for all those advising international students, whether or not they have the word adviser in their job title. It sets out the principles of professionalism and best practice to which AISA and UKCISA would expect their members to adhere.

The commentary was jointly developed by UKCISA and AISA as a guide to the application of the code. It is intended particularly for those new to working with international students and for those working with international students in institutions with fewer established policies and procedures in relevant areas.
