I will, as an arson investigator, regard myself as a member of an important and honorable profession.

I will conduct both my personal and professional life so as to inspire the confidence of the public.

I will not use my position of trust in the California Conference of Arson Investigators for personal advantage or profit.

I will regard my fellow investigators with the same standards as I hold for myself.  I will never betray a confidence, nor otherwise jeopardize their investigation.

I will regard it my duty to know my work thoroughly.  I will make it my further duty to avail myself of every opportunity to learn more about my profession.

I will avoid alliances with those whose goals are inconsistent with an honest and unbiased investigation.

I will make no claim to professional qualifications which I do not possess.

I will share all publicity equally with my fellow investigators, whether such publicity is favorable or unfavorable.

I will be loyal to my superiors, to my subordinates and to the organizations I represent.

I will always bear in mind that I am a truth seeker; not a case maker, that it is more important to protect the innocent than to convict the guilty.

I will at all times remember the importance of honesty within my profession.
