Developing Effective Academic Integrity Policies for Higher Education Institutions

The webinar series “Developing Effective Academic Integrity Policies for Higher Education Institutions” focuses on one of the core pillars of credible and sustainable education systems: the promotion and protection of academic honesty. As higher education faces new challenges in the digital era, including plagiarism, contract cheating, and evolving assessment practices, institutions must design clear, fair, and enforceable policies that uphold integrity, while supporting student learning and development. This series brings together experts, administrators, and educators to share best practices, case studies, and innovative approaches to building robust academic integrity frameworks that align with institutional values and global standards.
