This policy ensures that the intellectual property rights of AB Qualifications are respected and maintained. The policy provides clear guidelines on how copyrighted materials can be utilised, shared, or adapted by educators, learners, and third-party organisations.
Under this policy, the creators of educational content such as textbooks, digital resources, and examination materials retain their rights to control how their work is used. This not only protects the original authors' interests but also encourages the development of high-quality educational resources by ensuring that creators are fairly compensated for their efforts.
It is imperative for recognised centres to adhere strictly to these guidelines to maintain compliance and respect the intellectual property rights associated with these materials.
The use of our logo is restricted solely to those institutions that have been granted official recognition. This emblem represents a standard of excellence and quality that must not be misappropriated by unrecognised entities. Therefore, any use of the logo by non-recognised centres constitutes a breach of our policy and may lead to legal repercussions.
Learners are granted permission to utilise or cite information published by AB Qualifications, provided that they adhere to the essential practice of acknowledging the source or including appropriate references. This ensures that credit is duly given and the original source is recognised for its contribution to academic work.
Staff members and contractors associated with AB Qualifications to understand that this policy does not extend carte blanche usage rights. The utilisation of any resources by these groups requires explicit permission from the director of AB Qualifications. This stipulation safeguards against unauthorised distribution or misuse of materials, thus preserving their value and ensuring they are used in a manner consistent with organisational standards.
The resources provided by AB Qualifications are intended exclusively for use within recognised centres. These materials are crafted to support educational delivery in environments that meet our rigorous standards. As such, they should only be utilised when a centre holds active recognition status. Once this recognition ceases, it is crucial that all usage of these resources is discontinued immediately. Continued use beyond this point undermines both the quality assurance processes we uphold and the value we offer through our educational provisions.
Centres must adhere to these regulations to avoid infringement issues which could lead to legal repercussions. By understanding and implementing this policy effectively, educators can ensure they are contributing positively to a sustainable ecosystem where both innovation in education and respect for authorship is valued.
