ETHICS AND PROFESSIONAL INTEGRITY
Shinsei Formations commits to complying with the ethical criteria and rules applicable to skills assessments, in accordance with the Code of Ethics governing them, through the application of Articles R. 6322-32 to 60 of the French Labour Code.
Preamble
The Skills Assessment Consultants at Shinsei Formations commit to doing everything possible to support beneficiaries in their professional repositioning, in compliance with the three phases of the skills assessment, over a duration contractually agreed upon with the client.
They commit to carrying out all phases of the skills assessment professionally, in accordance with Articles R. 6322-32 to 60. They commit to working with a methodology, tools, training, knowledge of the job market and economic actors, and a professional network for career investigations. All tools used are aligned with high‑quality, benevolent, professionally oriented support. Shinsei Formations commits to providing support and supervision to consultants collaborating with the organisation, who accept supervision of their professional practice, monitoring of their services, and quality control of their interventions.
Approach
Shinsei Formations’ Skills Assessment Consultants offer face‑to‑face or remote sessions and provide professional support with benevolence, empathy, and humanistic values, in compliance with the psychologists’ code of ethics, whether they are psychologists or not.
Three pillars form the foundation of these principles:
Consent: The skills assessment is based on the beneficiary’s full and voluntary commitment.
Confidentiality: All exchanges and written materials are subject to professional secrecy,
unless expressly authorised by the beneficiary.
Neutrality: The consultant must not take sides or favour one hypothesis over another.
Ethical Rules for Skills Assessment Consultants
Individual support takes place within a dual relationship between the consultant and the beneficiary. This process respects the absolute confidentiality of the work carried out. The applicable code of ethics at Shinsei Formations, for all collaborators, is the psychologists’ code of ethics, whether they are psychologists or not.
