Dear Macquarie University,

Could you please send the relevant policies, procedures and documents regarding contract cheating since the MyMaster case? Such as the definition, penalties, procedural fairness, training and support for staff.

And the polices to promote academic integrity and the measures to minimise academic misconduct, including the education, cultural awareness cultivation, assessment design and English support for international students.
