IH World takes issues of intellectual property, copyright and plagiarism very seriously.

Course participants should ensure that they do not at any point, even through omission, present work that is not entirely their own. If participants wish to use external sources, it is required that participants cite their sources clearly, correctly and fully. This is the authors’ and publishers’ legal right. This is especially true if participants intend to quote from a source. However, participants should reference any source that may have a bearing on their thinking, or the work they have produced.

Disregard of this expectation may result in a ‘fail’ result being recorded for your course, and possibly legal proceedings as well.

The same holds true if you wish to quote or reference any material from this course, elsewhere. International House World Organisation and its authors are the sole owners of this information and it must be properly attributed, every time you wish to make use of it.

Further participation in the course is considered to indicate that the participant in question both recognises and accepts the following conditions as binding.

· I undertake to present only my own work throughout the course.

· I understand that any sources I use throughout the course must be properly referenced.

· I understand that failure to do so may result in a fail result on the course.


On behalf of IHWO.
