Code of Ethics

​The national Code of Ethics is intended to be actively used by all Canadian Career Development Professionals (CDPs) to underpin their practice.

Certification

A CCDP® is a professional who has gained their designation by adhering to The National Competency Profile for Career Development Professionals. It confirms industry-standard skills, a commitment to ethical practices, formalizes their proficiency, and instills public trust. Maintaining this designation simplifies the communication of expertise to clients and employers.
