Equal Opportunity & IP Policies

In the provision of its services as a world-class Training Provider, Centre Of Corporate Studies is committed to provide fair access / equal opportunities throughout the delivery of its courses and assessment leading to the completion of our courses, or 3rd party qualifications/certifications.

The objective of this policy is to ensure that both delegates and organizations with whom Centre Of Corporate Studies does business are treated fairly and equally irrespective of gender, color, ethnic or national origin, age, marital status, disability, family circumstances, socio-economic background, and so forth.

Centre Of Corporate Studies aims to comply with any legislative requirements that intend to prevent unfair discrimination and/or protects equal opportunities and ensure that any changes to current legislation are reflected in this policy.

By facilitating the structure and contents of its training courses as well as its processes for assessment, Centre Of Corporate Studies will exploit reasonable effort to:

  • Ensure delegates/candidates receive fair and equal opportunities in order to help and encourage them to reach their full potential through training and development while safeguarding the integrity of its training courses.
  • Prevent unnecessary barriers to achievement (including but not limited to arrangements for access, assessment of training needs, reasonable adjustment and special consideration).
  • Guarantee fair assessment to all delegates/candidates, including those with particular assessment arrangements;
  • Comply with all existing legislative requirements in relation to equal opportunity (If Centre Of Corporate Studies is delivering courses or seminars in another country, due consideration is given to any geographical variations in equal opportunity legislative requirements).

In order to meet these criteria, Centre Of Corporate Studies will exhaust reasonable effort to make adjustments and special consideration (whenever deemed appropriate as to the circumstances) to delegates/candidates undertaking Centre Of Corporate Studies courses and/or organizations with direct link to Centre Of Corporate Studies’s courses.

Centre Of Corporate Studies monitors the commitment of its Staff to equality and diversity from time to time.
