Code of Professional Ethics
To establish and maintain
public confidence in the professionalism, honesty, ability and
integrity of the professional speaker is fundamental to the future of
the National Speakers Association, its members and the profession of
speaking.
To this end, members of the Association have adopted and, as a
condition of membership, subscribe to the Code of Professional Ethics.
By doing so, the members give notice that they recognize the vital
