Presented by the co-chairs of the Alberta Council on Academic Integrity working group on contract cheating, Sarah Elaine Eaton and Sheryl Boisvert. In this webinar we talked about contract cheating in Alberta. We discussed essay mills, homework completion services, unethical tutoring services, and thesis consultation services that all cross the line into academic misconduct. Participants learned about the size and scope of this predatory industry and how it preys on our students, including engaging in blackmail and extortion.
