Hello everyone,
I'm just a random computing engineering student throwing his €0,02 into
the fray.

It is not obvious that an ethical component belongs (or doesn't belong)

Personally, I'd let ethics be a field-wide concern. As in, someone
calling himself a software engineer or system administrator should abide
by a certain code of ethics.
And while many ethical codes can be tied to religion, most
professionally-based codes of this kind are not.
I'm still trying to grasp where religion came in.
If the primary purpose of the certification is to serve the public
interest (including those who contract or hire certified people), then
an ethical code is completely appropriate and desirable (though its
composition will inevitably be controversial).
I was under the impression that this certification would ease my future
hiring process.
Cheers,
