The Association of Corporate Treasurers (ACT) is a UK-based Awarding Body, committed to providing high quality qualifications, learning and assessment practices, with supporting policies that are transparent and free from bias.
These policies will provide you with information on how we support students during their learning and assessments and how to comply with the ACT’s rules.
Learning Policies
Study Site Accessibility Policy
The UK Equality Act 2010 requires an Awarding Body to make reasonable adjustments. In this regard, the ACT is willing to review requests for reasonable adjustment from students who have long-standing conditions that would otherwise mean they are unlikely to be able to perform on an equitable basis to other students when studying.
If you have questions about any learning polices, please email us at education@treasurers.org. We're here to help.
Assessment Policies
Assessment Rules and Regulations Policy
These rules and regulations apply to the assessments of all ACT qualifications.
Plagiarism and Collusion Policy
Plagiarism is the deliberate or unwitting passing off of someone else’s work as your own. All work that you submit as part of your ACT assessment must be expressed in your own words and incorporate your own judgements. Please review this policy before you take an assessment.
Reasonable Adjustment Policy
The UK Equality Act 2010 requires an Awarding Body to make reasonable adjustments where a disabled person would be at a substantial disadvantage in undertaking an assessment. In this regard, the ACT is willing to review requests for reasonable adjustment from candidates who have longstanding conditions that would otherwise mean they are unlikely to be able to perform on an equitable basis to other candidates when sitting an exam or submitting an assignment.
Special Consideration Policy
The ACT is willing to review requests for special consideration for candidates who have not been able to perform to their potential due to unforeseen or extenuating circumstances immediately prior to or during the sitting or submission of their assessment(s).
Appeals Policy
ACT candidates may appeal against their assessment result should they feel they qualify to do so and have exhausted all other post results services.
If you have questions about the assessment policies, please email us at assessment@treasurers.org.
