🔸 Academic Integrity and Honesty

I believe in being honest and fair in all academic work. I will always submit my own original work, give credit to others, and follow ethical practices in everything I do.

I always believe to complete my work with honesty. Try not to take credit for others work and acknowledge and appreciate team members.

🔸 Collaboration and Group Responsibility
Teamwork is important in cybersecurity and learning. I will contribute equally in group tasks, respect others’ opinions, and help build a supportive team environment. Share what I can to help everyone succeed in our common tasks and throughout the program.

I listen to my teammates and respect their opinions and share my ideas, notes, and resources to support others.

🔸 Active Learning and Personal Engagement
Learning is a continuous journey. I will stay curious, ask questions, and take responsibility for improving my skills throughout the programme. I will also support and learn from my classmates, recognising that we grow stronger together.

We are engaged in our learning; every day, we strive to acquire knowledge that enhances our skills.

🔸 Respect, Inclusion, and Communication
I value diversity and open communication. I will respect different perspectives and make sure everyone feels included and heard.

I help create a positive and inclusive learning environment for everyone.

Our Code of Ethics / Code of Conduct – Hederskodex

Welcome to our shared wiki page. Here, we co-create our Code of TMCSA – a living document that expresses what we value, how we act, and who we are as a cybersecurity learning community.

What to include:

Our Code of Ethics describes
- what we believe is right and wrong – and why.

Example: “We value curiosity, openness, and responsibility in the learning process.”

Our Code of Conduct describes
- what we should do or not do – and how we act.

Example: “We take an active role in our own learning by asking questions, exploring new ideas, and seeking feedback.”
