The training program is designed to review the company's values, ethics code, and policies, and ensure that all employees are very clear on where the company stands on key issues and business behaviors. This will help employees make right choices by ensuring that their values are in harmony with the company's values, and by providing them with clear guidelines and expectations for ethical conduct. The other options, such as emphasizing the importance of values education in public schools or hiring with care, may be important factors in promoting ethical behavior, but they are not directly addressed by the training program described in the case.
