Plagiarism includes copying and pasting material from the   internet into assignments without properly citing the source of the   material.

Academic Integrity:

At a Christian liberal arts university committed to the pursuit of   truth and understanding, any act of academic dishonesty is especially   distressing and cannot be tolerated. In general, academic dishonesty   involves the abuse and misuse of information or people to gain an   undeserved academic advantage or evaluation. The common forms of   academic dishonesty include:

• Cheating using deception in the taking of tests or the   preparation of written work, using unauthorized materials, copying   another persons work with or without consent, or assisting another in   such activities.
• Lying falsifying, fabricating, or forging information in either written, spoken, or video presentations.
• Plagiarism Using the published writings, data, interpretations, or ideas of another without proper documentation.

Episodes of academic dishonesty are reported to the Vice President   for Academic Affairs. The potential penalty for   academic dishonesty   includes a failing grade on a particular assignment, a failing grade  for  the entire course, or charges   against the student with the   appropriate disciplinary body.

We have covered four of the five states of the process.

The BCP – Business Continuity Plan has a wide range of disaster where 75% of the businesses which are claimed and lost their businesses did not has any disaster recovery plan. If you are running a small business then you know when and where the disaster will happen and you can fall back or stop spending in the business. There are over 25% of the businesses which are closed due to major disaster has never reopened.

These are different Business Continuity Plan’s,
Defining Your Team Clearing: The first thing the employees of the organization want to know who will be in charge at the time if disaster situations. At this time if we are creating a team on the business continuity team would help the company and have the answers for the important questions which may come under disaster and we can counter those questions are we can help the company by falling under disaster node. This team will be in charge of planning and testing throughout the year such that there will be no major disaster and keep the plan up to date.

Meticulous Planning is Essential: If we are planning three steps ahead of any situation any given time will help us to keep ahead and away in a disaster situation rather than trying to figure out the needs that may need at the time of unfolding disaster situation. 

Testing Effectively: As we are in planning mode we need to have the testing plan at work as well and on a regular basis we need to test all the plans. Any of the planned plans is out of date then that plan needs to be replanned or else it may cause confusion at the time of disaster where it actually strikes.

Crisis COmmunications: In crisis communications, the effective means of communications with all the employees during any disaster is very much important. Crating a toolkit that has a wide range of all the important communications channels plans like telecommunications, intranet, emails, etc can be useful at the time of disaster. Having this kind of toolkit handy will be more useful at the time of disaster and it will be in handy too and can be used at the right time.

Employees Safty is Key: There is nothing more important than keeping the employees safe in any disaster situation. Any disaster situation reaching out to the disaster management companies like FEMA is a good way to give yourself and the team with the emergency response training to help to understand and do as instructed.

Accessing Business Resources: Keeping the staff of your company productive at the time of disaster is a very good move for protecting the data. The other way is establishing remote computer networks which will allow you to save the data at the time disaster is a good move. Working with any IT professionals at the time of disaster to keep the mobile network secured and which is also fast while saving your own data.

Continuous IT Operations: The other way is to have backups on offsite which were the data is backed up continuously and it will help a lot at the time of disaster. Many of the companies in the market has avoided losing the data where the market was hit by ransomware, what they did was they have stored their data offsite and had many backup plans and recovery plans.

Risks and Impacts: All the business continuity plans identify the internal and external risks of the organizations. This can also include major events as well such as hurricane, fire or floods, frauds, failures in telecommunications, etc. The plan includes the assessments of the risks levels of all the disasters also estimating the consequences of each individual disaster.

Duties and Priorities: Any clear commands in the disaster are a good way structured duty. Prioritizing peoples are very much critical at the time of disaster which may also include property damages etc. The plan identifies the key employees who must be in the operational stats from the day of their joining in the organization to help the consumers/ organizations etc.

2)  

Business Continuity Planning consists of seven key elements as described below.

Establish a Planning Committee: It varies as per the team size, but its more effective adding the veterinarians, managers, and supervisors into the planning meeting.

Conduct a Business Impact Analysis: A business impact analysis (BIA) supports the entire business continuity process. It is a process used to identify, quantify, and qualify the impact of a loss, interruption, or disruption. A BIA identifies mission-critical activities and the time frame within which they must be recovered. Explore all the risks that your practice is exposed to and the possible major disruptions that could occur.

And dont forget about your suppliers. Could you still operate if your top vendors closed due to a disaster? Consider the actions needed for your practice to remain operational. Plan alternatives for your critical supplier dependencies.

Mitigate Risk: After the BIA, the practice should mitigate risks that threaten the health and safety of people, operations, patients, company assets, or the environment by reducing the risk to an acceptable level

Establish Business Continuity Strategies: This establishes the strategies for alternate practices to work at temporarily, mutual aid agreements with animal shelters, practices to take patients, cross trainings.

Develop Your Plan: Record everything in the BIA process and develop a plan for disasters and emergencies. At a minimum, the plan should include goals and objectivies, risk mitigation plans, supplier vendor readiness, plan maintenance etc.

Implement and Train: Performs the training for employees with key roles and assignments in the business continuity, disaster recovery and incident response processes.

Test the Plan: Testing is the common name taken to elaborate the crucial process of exercising strategies and plans, practicing with coworkers, testing the cross systems to demonstrate the business continuity.
