contents <p class="MsoNormal">There is nothing wrong with private groups requiring continuing professional education of their members. Private associations have the right to determine the rules under which they operate. Problems result when these private groups lobby their governments to adopt rules that force people to do things as a condition of employment. One of the most basic human rights is the right to work, and this right is violated when some agency of the State, whether executive, legislative or judicial, prevents people from working in their chosen field.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">This article examines the IFAC continuing education rules and finds them defective on ethical grounds because they advocate coercion. The author concludes that voluntary continuing professional education is superior to government mandated CPE.</p>
