Code of Conduct NVvT

Roleplay actors can have a big impact on a participant’s learning process. This means that roleplay actors bear responsibility for aspects such as professionalism, integrity, trustworthiness and skillfulness. Accordingly, the NVvT has drawn up a code of conduct for its members. Members of the NVvT vow to uphold the code of conduct upon admission to the association.
