BREACH OF EXAMINATION AND/OR ASSESSMENT REGULATIONS

Nathan Corcoran -- JLT Speciality Ltd., 35 Richmond Hill, Bournemouth

The coursework assessment candidate was found to have plagiarised an AF8 assignment written by another candidate, in breach of the coursework assessment guidelines. The CII case examiner invited the respondent to approve and sign a consensual order under 9.1 of the CII Disciplinary Procedure Rules 2015, to which the respondent agreed, and which was signed on 21 November 2019. The sanctions issued were that the respondent: a) be reprimanded (DR12.6a); b) take and complete the CII online ethics course before booking any further CII examinations, enrol on any CII assessments or applying for any CII recognition of prior learning. To be completed within 6 months of the date of the order (Reg 12.6d); c) Have a record of this matter added to the CII's disciplinary records (DR 12.6f) d) have the AF8 assignment result disallowed; e) be excluded from CII examinations and assessments for a period of 18 months from the examinations or assessments held by the CII (with effect from 30 Sept. 2019) (Reg 12.6l); f) be excluded for a period of 18 months from applying for CII recognition of prior learning (with effect from 30 Sept. 2019) (Reg 12.6p); and g) No examinations, assessments or qualifications obtained by the respondent during the period of the exclusion will be eligible for
CII recognition of prior learning with effect from the date of the order (Reg 12.6p).

Andrew Hill -- JLT Wealth Management Ltd., 16 Queensbridge, Northampton

The respondent allowed his AF8 assignment to be accesses by another candidate, in breach of the coursework assessment guidelines. The CII case examiner invited the respondent to approve and sign a consensual order under 9.1 of the CII Disciplinary Procedure Rules 2015, to which the respondent agreed, and which came into effect on 25 October 2019. The sanctions issued were that the respondent: a) be reprimanded; and b) to take and complete the CII online ethics course before booking any CII examinations, enrol on any CII assessments or apply for any CII recognition of prior learning; and c) have a record of this matter added to the CII's disciplinary records (DR 12.6f).

"To date, the CII have dealt with two instances of non-members using CII designations for 2020. As this is an infringement of CII's trademarks, where people persist in misusing CII designations, legal action will be taken against them".


TAKE NOTE

Where the disciplinary panel or case examiner has decided to publish details of a disciplinary case ascribed (i.e. where an individual has been named), every care has been taken to identify members correctly. Please contact the CII if there is any doubt about the identity of a member who may have been the subject of disciplinary proceedings and in relation to whom a report has been published.
