It applies to courses at universities and colleges as well as in the work place. The paper explores the evi-dence on our ability to strengthen moral behaviour through courses on Ethics , finds it to be weak, so starts with the assumption that we cannot teach people to be ethical. The paper asks therefore what the objectives of a course could be and how best to achieve them. It examines the different Theories in the literature, eventually settling on four objectives: increasing moral cognition; teach-ing a widening and strengthening of ethical practices; adopting Teaching approaches that maximise learning impact, and developing the personal skills of individuals in negotiation and persuasion.
