Academic integrity, plagiarism and collusion
Academic Integrity
Academic Integrity is about the honest presentation of your academic work. It means acknowledging
the work of others while developing your own insights, knowledge and ideas.
TOID 41406 CRICOS Code 03762M Authorized by CEO Review Date: November 2022
Unit Code: SITXMGT002 Page 3 of 84 Version 1.1
SITXMGT002 - Establish and conduct business relationships
(Unit Assessment Pack)
As a student, you are required to:
• Undertake studies and research responsibly and with honesty and integrity
• Ensure that academic work is in no way falsified
• Seek permission to use the work of others, where required
• Acknowledge the work of others appropriately
• Take reasonable steps to ensure other students cannot copy or misuse your work.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism means to take and use another person's ideas and or manner of expressing them and to
pass them off as your own by failing to give appropriate acknowledgement. This includes material
sourced from the internet, RTO staff, other students, and from published and unpublished work.
Plagiarism occurs when you fail to acknowledge that the ideas or work of others are being used,
which includes:
• Paraphrasing and presenting work or ideas without a reference
• Copying work either in whole or in part
• Presenting designs, codes or images as your own work
• Using phrases and passages verbatim without quotation marks or referencing the author or
web page
• Reproducing lecture notes without proper acknowledgement.
Collusion
Collusion means unauthorised collaboration on assessable work (written, oral or practical) with other
people. This occurs when a student presents group work as their own or as the work of someone else.
Collusion may be with another RTO student or with individuals or students external to the RTO. This
applies to work assessed by any educational and training body in Australia or overseas.
Collusion occurs when you work without the authorisation of the teaching staff to:
• Work with one or more people to prepare and produce work
• Allow others to copy your work or share your answer to an assessment task
• Allow someone else to write or edit your work (without rto approval)
• Write or edit work for another student
• Offer to complete work or seek payment for completing academic work for other students.
Both collusion and plagiarism can occur in group work. For examples of plagiarism, collusion and
academic misconduct in group work please refer to the RTO’s policy on Academic integrity, plagiarism
and collusion.
Plagiarism and collusion constitute cheating. Disciplinary action will be taken against students who
engage in plagiarism and collusion as outlined in RTO’s policy.
Proven involvement in plagiarism or collusion may be recorded on students’ academic file and could
lead to disciplinary action

Further Information
Feedback to student
Feedback on students’ assessment performance is a vital element in their learning. Its purpose is to
justify to students how their competency was assessed, as well as to identify and reward specific
qualities in their work, to recommend aspects needing improvement, and to guide students on what
steps to take.
Feedback defines for students what their trainer/assessor thinks is important for a topic or a subject.
At its best, feedback should:
• Be provided for each Unit Assessment Task (UAT)
• Guide students to adapt and adjust their learning strategies
• Guide trainers/assessors to adapt and adjust teaching to accommodate students’ learning
needs
• Be a pivotal feature of learning and assessment design, not an add-on ritual
• Focus on course and unit learning outcomes
• Guide students to become independent and self-reflective learners and their own critics
• Acknowledge the developmental nature of learning.
If students have not received proper feedback, they must speak to compliance and quality assurance
department/administration department in the RTO/person responsible for looking after the quality
and compliance services of the RTO.

Questions:
Question 1. Explain the following institutions with whom a business may seek to establish
business relationship based on organisational requirements and protocols. Answer each way in 50 –
75 words.
a. Cooperative partner with organisation
b. Contractor
c. Customer
d. Networks
e. Supplier
a. cooperative partner with organisation: when two or more businesses are able to get together It
is praised by contributors, funders, and stakeholders when these groups join forces and either co-
develop programmes or coordinate their service delivery. It has become a common practise in the
non profit sector and is a clever method to prevent duplication, reduce competition, and take
advantage of agencies' knowledge and experience. Additionally, it strongly conveys to the
community at large the value of effectiveness and resourcefulness.
b. Contractor: A person or company that contracts with another person or company for work,
typically at a defined price, is referred to as a contractor. Since they are not bound by an
employment contract, contractors are not considered to be workers of a company. Therefore, it's
crucial to make sure you have a clear contract in place for both your roles as an employer and a
type of contractor. Although there are slight distinctions between the terms contractor,
independent contractor, and subcontractor, you can be both at the same time under the right
circumstances.
c. customer: Customer relationship management depends on building and maintaining
relationships with current clients while cultivating loyalty. After building ties with clients, it is crucial
to comprehend how those relationships will be maintained, how they contribute to the expansion
of the company, and how to keep them coming back.
d. Networks : In computing, a network is a collection of two or more interconnected devices.
Several separate computer systems connected by wired or wireless connections make up a network
in practise. The scope can be as little as a single PC giving out basic peripherals, or as large as the
Internet itself, with its vast network of data centres. All networks enable computers and/or people
to share information and resources, regardless of their size.
e. supplier: The relationship with suppliers is crucial because most businesses, whether they are
service or product-oriented, rely on them. Treating suppliers well is crucial since they need to be
dependable and high-quality. Just like any other relationship in the organisation, the relationship

Question 2. List any eight (8) effective communication skills and techniques that can build
business relationships.
1. Listening
2. Nonverbal communication
3. Emotional awareness
Emotions are a key factor in communication as they are essentially how an individual
feel how they think, what their motivation is to make decisions or communicate. The
way that an individual reacts to emotionally driven, nonverbal cues affects how they
understand others and how others understand them.
4 Pose inquiries
It's appropriate to say to someone, "I get frustrated when you don't pitch in to help the
team." However, you should also anticipate your co-worker to remark something along
the lines of, "I get frustrated when I have too much work." It's alright. You should try to
figure out a solution to the issue. You may start by outlining your respective
expectations for the workplace. Even though emotion is a component of that
communication, it shouldn't be its conclusion.
If both parties hunch over, tighten their jaws, and avoid making eye contact, it's
difficult to have open dialogue. Even though the words aren't shouting angrily in this
situation, the nonverbal cues are. Be mindful of your vocal tone as well. It could be
best to wait till things calm if nonverbal cues are overpowering the discourse. To
demonstrate that you are paying attention to what the other person is saying, nod
your head and keep your body open.
It takes ongoing effort to communicate well, and you should express gratitude to the
other person for their cooperation. This will keep the lines of communication open and
is a win-win situation.

8. Don't anticipate miracles and practise patience
Communication is both crucial and challenging. While it does not embrace diversity, it
does allow for it. In the end, effective corporate communication is about fostering
relationships rather than winning. Change takes time to manifest.

and suppliers in hospitality industry. Answer in 50 – 75 words.

Negotiation preparation is a vital first stage of the negotiating process. Research both sides of the
discussion and identify any possible trade-offs. Make a list of what concessions you're willing to
put on the bargaining table, and understand who in your organization has decision-making power.
2. Information exchange:
During this stage of the negotiation, the parties compare their initial positions. Each side should be
given an uninterrupted opportunity to express their core concerns and interests, as well as what
they hope to gain from the negotiation and the reasons behind their positions.
3. Clarify:
Both parties continue the discussion they started while exchanging information during the
clarification phase by defending and supporting their statements. If one side disagrees with what
the other is saying, they should calmly debate their differences to come to an understanding.

Feedback is essential to effective communication since it confirms that both parties understand
one another.
Receiving feedback entails getting a reaction or a response, which is a method for assessing how
well communication went. A greater knowledge of how something has been received can be
attained through feedback, which also helps to pinpoint any potential next steps. Requesting and
getting feedback is essential for all businesses.
It is crucial to ask the other party to the negotiation for their opinion and to get it. In order to get
feedback from the other party in negotiations, it's important to take the following actions:

Depending on the modifications, there can be certain changes that need to be spelt out in a new
contract or an amended contract that needs to be signed by both parties.
It is crucial to have a conversation where all parties agree on the necessary adjustment and specify
the corrective steps if the situation is to be resolved. Any adjustments should typically be made in
writing.
The terms and conditions can be modified by adding a straightforward amendment page.
The justifications for the modification and revisions needed should be stated.
If the change is substantial, negotiations are necessary and a new contract needs to be created.
The complexity of the current contract and the necessary modifications determine whether or not
a new contract needs to be developed.

A contract needs to include four things in order to be enforceable:
an intention to establish a legal partnership, an offer, an acceptance, and a consideration (usually
money).
Even so, it may still be ruled unlawful if it: induces someone to commit a crime; is illegal; is
entered into by someone who lacks capacity, such as a kid or bankrupt; or was agreed under
coercion, unconscionable conduct, or undue influence.

Question 15. Explain any three (3) different types of formal commercial agreements and contracts
an organisation participates on. Answer in 3 – 5 lines for each.
WRITTEN CONTRACT: -Contain documentation of the terms of the agreement between you and
the hirer.
-Help avoid misunderstandings or arguments by being explicit about the agreement from the start.
-Give you stability and peace of mind by letting you know that you will have work, for how long,
and for how much.
The STANDARD FORM CONTRACT A is a pre-written contract in which the majority of the
provisions have been decided upon in advance and there has been little to no negotiation
between the parties. These are frequently printed with just a few blank spots for details like
names, dates, and signatures.

Question 16. Explain the following components of contract law in 3 – 5 lines for each.
a. Terms and obligations of contract
b. Methods of contractual agreement
c. Exclusion clauses
d. Dispute resolution clause
e. Termination of contracts
a. Contractual obligations impose a legal obligation on contractors to carry out the promises
made in the agreement. Before challenging the validity of a contract, one must take into
account a person's reasonable competence to act or refrain from acting.
c. An exclusion clause is a provision in a contract that aims to limit the rights of the
contracting parties. The district courts have historically sought to restrict the application of
exclusion clauses.
e. Terminate a contract implies to do so before both parties have completed their obligations
under it. In other words, the parties' obligation to fulfil their individual contractual
commitments ends before they have fulfilled all of them.

Respecting any agreements that fall under your personal sphere of control is very crucial. When you
join a new business or company, the boundaries of your power will be explained to you. First off,
based on your position and prior experience, your authority is typically restricted.
Knowing and comprehending the boundaries and restrictions is crucial. To achieve this, ask for
workplace examples and clear up any confusion by speaking with management.
Never go beyond your scope of authority. If, however, the situation is beyond your authority:
Send the issue to a senior member of the hierarchy. For advice, consult senior authorities.
breaking agreements
Refusing to fulfil contractual commitments or pay a fee is what this action entails.
A transaction might be dishonoured if the seller fails to deliver the products or if the customer fails to
make payment. In contracts, a party may breach the agreement by changing the terms, providing
past-due funds or commodities, or failing to carry out their contractually mandated obligations.
