PEEC’s process includes deliberation in meetings open to the public, public exposure of proposed standards, and a formal vote. PEEC also promotes understanding and voluntary compliance with such standards, establishing and presenting charges of violations of the standards and the AICPA's bylaws to the Joint Trial Board for disciplinary action in cooperation with State Societies under the Joint Ethics Enforcement Program. PEEC is also involved with providing ethics guidance to membership.
