The Ethics & Compliance Officer Association
(ECOA) is a non-consulting, member-driven association
exclusively for individuals who are responsible for their
organization's ethics, compliance, and business conduct programs.
The only organization of its kind, it is the largest group of
business ethics and compliance practitioners in the world.
The ECOA brings together people who are new to the field, as well
as those with years of experience to share. Through the ECOA,
practicing ethics and compliance officers address the tough issues
they face every day.
Members learn from one another and, in turn, help to foster a
global commitment to ethics and integrity. The collegiality of
ECOA members has been our strength and the principal source of our
ability to create a trusting and frank environment for all. We
draw value from the diversity of cultures and industries
represented among our members and from the sincerity and character
of our colleagues.
The ECOA is a non-profit, 501(c)(6) association, which derives all
of its revenue from members' dues, conferences and other meeting
fees, and financial contributions.
