"I am so pleased to play a part in the development of the Trusted Seal Program, a revolutionary way for us to advance the academic integrity agenda in online education. For any online educator out there who wants to know how to do more to protect the integrity of their courses and then be known for the good work that they do, like UWA, this Program is the answer," said Dr. Tricia Bertram Gallant, ICAI Board Member and international academic integrity expert, "Along with our partner at Software Secure, we are pleased to provide this service and look forward to expanding the integrity standards of the Trusted Seal Program globally as well as potentially into the arena of brick and mortar classes".
