October 17th marks the 3rd Annual International Day of Action Against Contract Cheating, an event inspired by the unethical practice of contract cheating and ICAI’s unwavering determination to combat academic dishonesty in higher education.
Contract cheating, or the practice of engaging a third-party to complete assignments, is on the rise. It threatens to dismantle the bedrock of our educational systems and calls in to question the integrity of the degrees being awarded.
Join Turnitin and the International Center for Academic Integrity to drive awareness and urgency around contract cheating:
- Sign the pledge, share the pledge, and commit to safeguarding quality learning.
- Post whiteboard declarations and join the conversation on social with #defeatthecheat and #excelwithintegrity.
- Register your institution with ICAI today and download the Institutional Toolkit. It’s never too late to host an event on campus to promote integrity and deter contract cheating behaviors.
Let’s unite institutions, educators, students, and industry partners to preserve and defend the sacred values of our educational institutions. It won’t be an easy battle, but it’s a worthy one: sign the pledge and take a stand. We’re right there with you.
