In an effort to promote the importance of a valuable education, the faculty and staff at the local community college are trained to ask each student about their career preferences, rather than suggest courses that may not benefit the student's future goals. Although it would be tempting to suggest courses just to increase the college's enrollment, employees know that it is more important to serve each student well, even if it means suggesting courses and/or degrees offered at other institutions. This approach is consistent with:

A. an integrity-based ethics code.B. a compliance-based ethics code.C. a response to a government mandate.D. a personal responsibility commitment.

Integrity-based code of ethics is an agreement that defines the values and duties of a company, institution, professional category, NGO, etc., based on its mission, culture and social positioning. However, in the code of integrity ethics these values and duties are at the discretion of employees.

As the code of ethics in the above was a decision of the teachers and staff of a local college, we can say that this is a code of ethics based on integrity.
