Its significance has been growing given the fact that it creates conditions for acquiring new knowledge and skills without discontinuing work and family commitments.

Ethics in the Field of Higher Education
Summary:
The adoption of modern concepts and opinions related to good governance and corporate social responsibility lead to the normative settlement of ethics in public sector institutions, and in the field of higher education. As a result, ethical behavioral norms have been developed in educational institutions. Due to the increasing requirements in the last years for improving the quality of educational services and research results, ethical issues in the field of higher education are becoming more and more relevant, and integrity is increasingly becoming a prerequisite for the achievement of contemporary goals of educational institutions. This gives grounds for examining the mentioned problems – in theory and practice, both in the country and abroad, with a view to establishing concrete opportunities for development and improvement of the ethical norms in the field of higher education.
