Our Commitment

The PA Education Association (PAEA) is an organization with strong values of responsibility and integrity in its vision of Health for All. This includes a commitment to respect and conducting business with the highest standards of ethics.

PAEA is committed to an environment where open and honest communication is the expectation – not the exception. We want you to feel comfortable when reporting instances where you believe violations of policies or standards have occurred.

In situations where you prefer to place a report in confidence, you are encouraged to use this site or our telephone hotline, hosted by a third-party provider, EthicsPoint. Violations of the PAEA Assessment Exam Policies can be reported here at this time. You will be able to report incidents of suspected inappropriate exam behavior such as complaints of faculty, staff, or proctor behavior, and collection, dissemination, or use of confidential information.

There is also a place in this system for general inquiries, where you can ask for guidance related to policies and procedures, and/or provide positive suggestions and stories.

The information you provide will be sent to PAEA by EthicsPoint on a completely confidential basis. You have our guarantee that your comments will be heard.

See the EthicsPoint FAQs for more information.
