  This article examined the inclusion of ethics courses in various OT and PT programs in Canada. When identifying potential courses, the researchers examined the syllabus descriptions of courses within the curriculum. The keywords were cataloged and organized in order to demonstrate overall occurrence and its focus on educating ethics. The researchers found that 5.9-6.5% of programs offer official ethics courses in their programs. The researchers also found that despite these low percentages of official courses, instruction in ethics was provided in other broad courses. Additionally, it was found that master-level programs provided a higher degree of ethical instruction as opposed to bachelor programs. This is a good article because it illustrates that programs are becoming more aware of the need for ethical instruction with entry-level clinicians.
