As a member of the Global Academic Integrity Network (GAIN), Hungarian Accreditation Committee has united with similar agencies globally and calls on social media and online platforms to stand up against academic dishonesty.
The Global Academic Integrity Network (GAIN), representing 40 education quality and integrity agencies from around the world including Hungarian Accreditation Committee, has issued an open letter calling on social media and online platforms to take action to stop the advertising of commercial contract cheating services.
Online contract cheating services facilitate academic dishonesty by allowing students to pay someone else to complete assignments and/or take exams on their behalf. These services undermine students’ learning as well as trust in the qualifications which they ultimately receive.
GAIN’s open letter calls on major social media and online platforms to join the fight against academic dishonesty.
By major online platforms working together with GAIN, and reviewing and upholding their community guidelines, GAIN believes we can significantly reduce the visibility and impact of contract cheating services and send a powerful message worldwide about the value of legitimate academic achievements.
