Preventing education fraud
In order to prevent education fraud, the Centre aims to:
– raise awareness and inform
Raise awareness and inform member states of the risks of education fraud. Member States should ensure that the ETINED principles are promoted consistently by all education institutions and to all education stakeholders, and that education systems should set the same standards of quality and ethics for all institutions, regardless of their formal status in national education systems. This should be achieved by taking appropriate measures to provide information on and raise awareness about the prevention of education fraud and, through linking, in theory and in practice, quality assurance and other appropriate regulatory mechanisms, to promote ethics, transparency and integrity in education at all levels in accordance with national legislation;
– ensure the provision of adequate training
Ensure the provision of adequate training, on a continuing basis, on the prevention of education fraud and on fostering ethics, transparency and integrity for all professionals in the education, recruitment and employment sectors for all member States;
– promote the adoption of codes of ethics
Promote the adoption of codes of ethics for all education institutions of the member States through national legislation and/or institutional regulations based on the ETINED principles, governing all aspects of education affected by education fraud, including governance, management and human resources.
