Academic Misconduct’ Statement: „Academic Misconduct‟ is a term used to describe a deliberate attempt by a student to

take unfair advantage over other students to undermine the quality, standards and credibility of the programmes and

qualifications offer by UKCBC. Academic Misconduct includes: plagiarism; collusion; falsification; replication; cheating; bribery;

and impersonation. A student suspected of Academic Misconduct will be investigated by the College and appropriate action will

be taken.

‘Contract Cheating’ Statement: „Contract Cheating‟ is defined by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) as occurring when, “a

third party completes work for a student who then submits it to an education provider as their own, where such input is not

permitted.” Such third party companies have become known as „essay mills‟, and it is the responsibility of students to avoid

contact and association with such third party companies
