I do best model???
Permalink Closed


I've been asked by my tutor to compile a few short notes / definition of 'I do best model' as part fo professional ethics.

I have read the AAT guidelines and also googled it but nothing is coming up. I have never heard of it to be honest.

Does anyone have any idea what it is and where I could find information?

Thanks.

Hi Noola,

just had a look at the AAT guidance and it's not a mistake by your tutor, it quite clearly states that you need to know about the "I DO BEST" ethical model.

(see http://www.edutec.org.uk/word/level3/PatV_PEAF_GUIDE_20_Apr_2010.pdf)

I for one have never heard of it. Generally we sign up to adhere to our own bodies interpretation of the IFAC code of ethics. You know the one's, Integrity, Objectivity, Professional Competence & due care, Confidentiality and Professional Behavior.

Looking at the AAT code of ethics they don't even bother translating the IFAC code as it uses the code directly. See this link to the AAT ethics PDF :

http://www.aat.org.uk/servlet/file/Guidelines_On_Professional_Ethics_March_2009.pdf?ITEM_ENT_ID=15541&COLLSPEC_ENT_ID=187

There is no mention at all of an I do best model in the AAT ethics manual even though the tutor guidance clearly states that it's a model that you should be aware of.

Sounds like you need to ask your tutor where exactly the information is on this method as like yourself I can find nothing either on the Web or indeed buried in the ethical standards PDF's of the AAT which would be missed by an internet search engine.

Would be interested to know more about this myself.

Thanks for your reply. Its a bit strange that there is nothing on this subject but yet we need to know it. I don't really want to ask my tutor for help as I know she's given me the hardest one for being absent last week :/ lol

Hi kay,

Well, it definitely wouldn't be a stupid question to ask as there is nothing anywhere about this and also, at the end of the day help when you can't find the answer yourself is what your paying her for.

Don't struggle with this one just ask your tutor.
