Academic integrity

Academic Integrity Policies and Laws:
Academic integrity is an ethical symbol that entails the trainee's commitment to ethical
values and academic honesty in order to achieve academic success and excellence. One of the most
important pillars of academic integrity is to achieve the concept of honesty and respect for the
intellectual efforts of the center and others, while completely avoiding all forms of cheating, forgery,
impersonation, or any other act that violates the concept of academic integrity. Academic integrity is the
trainee's commitment to high ethical values and academic honesty, responsibly achieving their
academic success.
Academic integrity is the heart and foundation of society, and it determines people's credibility in
dealing with each other, and in trusting the responsible individuals in higher positions and centers. As
education and training are investments in the trainee's future, if the trainee does not preserve the
treasure of honesty in their training and academic journey, they will undoubtedly diminish their own
value and the value of the education they have been pursuing, and consequently, the value of their
certificate will be lost.
