INTERNATIONAL MARKET LEAVING NO ONE BEHIND
Across the world, ministries of education are focused on not just meeting the UN’s Quality Education (SDG4) and Equality and Inclusion (SDG10) goals, but also their own national requirements.
PREVENTING THE SHADOW GETTING LONGER
Organised examination corruption through security breaches cast a long shadow over some international exam results.
In 2021, UNESCO’s ETICO platform noted that academic misconduct is a significant problem rippling across the globe and reported that the University Calgary said cheating was up 269%.
In this instance, it’s not just students who risk their academic and work prospects by cheating, it also affects universities, schools and colleges too. They risk their reputations if they’re not seen to be deterring cheating or properly securing their high-stakes assessment processes.
HOW WE HELP
In our 70 years of specialising in the secure printing, packaging and distribution of high-stakes assessment, we have worked with multiple countries around the world. For many, developing stringent measures to curb cheating and exam leakages is a high priority as it hugely impacts their credibility and reputation. What differentiates us most from any other service provider is that we’re highly experienced in the complexities and politics surrounding the production and delivery of examination papers globally.
No company is better placed than us to ensure that:
Exam materials delivered to schools are of high quality; substandard materials can reflect badly on awarding organisations and compromise exam security.
Core papers can be modified to be more inclusive, for example, accommodating visually impaired candidates.
Tracking technology like barcoding and receipt scanning ensures timely and secure delivery from port to port, in-country distribution, and door-to-door
Our highly effective track and trace capability, between our UK facility and our customers’ overseas exam centres, is not only available at pallet level but also at page level. We use approved fraud identification solutions, audit trails for bags and boxes, and tamper-proof security tape and seals.
Secure, military grade encryption software is used to ensure the digital integrity of file sharing.
