The recent corporate climate in the United States has elicited a newfound emphasis on ethical behavior within organizations. While ethics education is considered to be the responsibility of many entities, organizations typically look to college educators for the ethical development of potential employees, causing academics to take a closer look at the components of current ethics education programs. The result has been a debate about the effectiveness of ethics courses. This paper proposes a novel approach to ethics education by aligning its goals and desired outcomes with the components and potential outcomes of adventure education techniques.
