This document contains basic information and fundamental considerations on embedding ICT in European values. It includes concepts and structures for using the framework and practical suggestions for the concrete implementation of organisational and individual aspects as scoped by the European ICT Professionalism framework and its basic underlying references.

The scope of occupations associated with Information and Communication Technology is very wide and therefore, to define a boundary, this document is based upon the target audience of the EN 16234-1 “e-Competence Framework (e-CF) – A common European Framework for ICT Professionals in all sectors – Part 1: Framework”.

Beneficiaries and users of this document include educational institutions embracing universities and VET, public and private, certification providers, industry, including HR departments, large companies and SMEs, and the ICT professional community.

An extended benefit of a common ethics framework is the enhanced perception of ICT as a ‘professional’ career. The overall attractiveness of employment within ICT from the perspective of potential employees will be improved by the establishment of a recognised ICT Profession in which ethics play a significant role.

EN 16234-1 (e-CF) is the starting point and guiding document for this technical publication, being closely connected with the other deliverables and references for a shared European language for ICT professional development.
