Conflict Of Interest
As a regulated awarding organisation, it is required to identify to different accreditation bodies and assist in managing or monitoring actual, potential and perceived conflicts of interest (‘Conflicts of Interest’) involving both APP staff and students. This policy complements WSET’s conflicts of interest policy and works to safeguard the integrity of different academies and promote confidence in all accreditation bodies and The Beverage Clique’s processes and procedures.
This policy applies to all The Beverage Clique staff and students and to any individual acting on behalf of The Beverage Clique.
A Conflict of Interest exists where an individual has interests or loyalties that could adversely influence their judgement, objectivity or loyalty to all accreditation bodies or The Beverage Clique when conducting activities associated with qualifications.
Examples of Conflicts of Interest include:
- The assessment of candidates by an individual who has a personal interest in the result of the assessment for any or all individuals concerned;
- The invigilation of a WSET assessment by any individual involved in the delivery of training leading to the assessment;
- The coaching of candidates by any individual involved in the assessment of candidate scripts;
- The investigation of a non-compliance incident by someone who is unable to act impartially.
Some of these Conflicts of Interest are manageable and therefore acceptable. For example, if family member of one of The Beverage Clique’s educators or APP staff takes a qualification and exam through The Beverage Clique, or when an employee of The Beverage Clique, or of the accreditation body, takes a qualification through The Beverage Clique, we can notify the accreditation body in advance and work along to put in place measures to maintain the integrity of the exam.
Some Conflicts of Interest are not manageable and are not acceptable. For example, no mitigation efforts overcome the conflict created when an individual when a single individual serves as the educator and exam officer of an exam for a family member where an external invigilator is not available.
Any staff member or student of The Beverage Clique who becomes aware of a Conflict of Interest must inform the administrative of The Beverage Clique via [email protected] in written form as soon as possible. The Beverage Clique will inform the related accreditation body of the possible conflict of interest and will work along to put any protective or mitigating measures in place to manage the conflict on a case-by-case basis. If the conflict is determined not manageable, we, The Beverage Clique will inform any impacted APP staff or students.
Please note that the failure to declare a conflict of interest may have consequences for the student or The Beverage Clique because we are required to report conflicts to all accreditation bodies.
Consumption of Alcohol
Candidate(s) under the legal drinking age are not allowed to sample any alcohol in any course(s). However, it is not a barrier for any candidate to attend and complete some accredited programmes successfully.
Candidate(s), for religious, health or any other reason(s), who do not wish to sample any alcohol during the course, may do so.
Examination and Results (applicable to accredited programmes)
The examination date will be specific to the course the candidate registered for. Any request to change in the date of examination will only incur a charge similar to an examination re-sit fee.
Any candidate who did not turn upon the examination day will be deemed“Absent”with or without valid reasons (e.g. medical certificate). Should the candidate request for another examination day, it will incur a charge similar to an examination re-sit fee.
Candidate may re-sit for an examination, subject to an examination re-sit fee, should he/she fails the 1st examination. Candidate who has passed the examination may not re-sit for an improved grade.
At current,the re-sit fee is at S$250 per level 2 examinations & S$350 per level 3 examinations per person.
The candidate must show proof of identity, by form of identity card, driver’s license or passport to the management, facilitator, and/or examiner, on the day of examination. TBCL may not allow the candidate to sit for the examination if he/she fails to do so.
TBCL will send an email to the candidate notifying that results are released.Under no circumstances, the results will be communicated in other forms of communication.
Certificates & pins may be delivered via meetup upon request based on availability of TBCL staff and candidate.

Should you have any question related to diversity and equality with us, please contact [email protected] or SSG Skillsfuture via https://www.skillsfuture.gov.sg/contact.
Malpractice And Maladministration
There are policies and procedures in place to protect all students and safeguard the integrity of the qualifications. The Beverage Clique ensures compliance with the policies through this Malpractice and Maladministration Policy, which gives a framework for both us and you to identify, report and manage potential malpractice or maladministration.
Non-compliance with the Policies and Procedures can fall into two distinct, but related, categories:
- Maladministration, where the non-compliance is generally unintentional, or the result of mistakes, carelessness, inexperience or poor processes; and
- Malpractice where the non-compliance is intentional or the result of a negligent or reckless action without consideration of the consequences of the action.
Context is important and the line between maladministration or malpractice is not always clear: for example, maladministration incidents may become malpractice (e.g. if you fail to implement corrective measures, repeat the same or similar incident, or attempt to misrepresent or hide information during an investigation); or there may be mitigating factors that turn potential malpractice into maladministration. Though malpractice and maladministration are distinct concepts, they can shade into one another. Malpractice and maladministration are always case, context and fact specific. Both APPs and students can commit malpractice and maladministration. There are many ways that malpractice or maladministration could occur, including new ways we have not seen yet. But some examples of malpractice or maladministration include:
For The Beverage Clique:
- Failure to adhere to each of the accreditation’s Policies and Procedures;
- Fraudulent claim for certificates/fraudulent use of certificates/reproduction or forgery of certificates;
- Revealing or sharing confidential exam materials with candidates ahead of an exam;
- Intentional attempts to manipulate exam results so that they do not reflect the candidate’s actual exam performance;
- Breach of confidentiality;
- Misleading advertising/publicity.
For students:
- Cheating, or facilitating cheating, including the use of unauthorised devices or materials;
- Disruptive behaviour in an exam;
- Plagiarism of any nature by students;
- Impersonation (including forgery of signatures);
- Unauthorised reading/amendment/copying/distribution of exam papers;
- Breach of confidentiality.
In general, it is expected that both The Beverage Clique staff and students should always treat others professionally and respectfully. We will treat inappropriate behaviour including verbal or physical abuse, persistent or unrealistic demands, or threats that cause stress to staff as misconduct and may report student misconduct as necessary.
Media
Images and videos captured during this event may be used in our website, social media, other publicity material or at other events and may be provided to the media for local or national publication.
If you do not wish to have images of yourself publish or used for such purposes, please inform us in writing.
Reasonable Adjustments
We want to make all assessments accessible for all students, so none are at an advantage or disadvantage based on a disability or differing ability. This policy and the reasonable adjustment process allows us, The Beverage Clique to work with you, our student, before an assessment to gather the information we need to submit a request to the related academy and work with them to make arrangements that give students access to their qualifications. A reasonable adjustment is any accommodation or arrangement that helps to reduce the effect of a known disability or difficulty that substantially disadvantages a student’s assessment. Using a reasonable adjustment does not impact how the academy grades your exam, or your result, but The Beverage Clique cannot agree to reasonable adjustments where your particular difficulty directly affects performance necessary to complete the assessment outcomes (e.g. inability to smell or taste for a Level 3 Exam). The goal of a reasonable adjustment is to give you equal access to the qualification, not to give unfair advantages over other students who take an assessment without the same adjustment, or to affect the overall reliability of the assessment outcomes that are explained in the course Specification. Examples of reasonable adjustments may be:
- Changing standard assessment arrangements, for example allowing candidates extra time to complete the assessment activity;
- Adapting assessment materials, such as providing materials in large text format;
- Providing access facilitators during assessment, such as a sign language interpreter or reader;
- Re-organising the assessment room, such as removal of visual stimuli for an autistic candidate.
The Beverage Clique will gather the information we need from you to submit a Reasonable Adjustment Application form to the accreditation body and wait for them to approve and arrange reasonable adjustments before the assessment activity takes place. Before completing enrolment with us, The Beverage Clique, we will give all students access to this policy and the chance to identify any special needs that could require a reasonable adjustment. If a student identifies a special need, The Beverage Clique will give the student the Reasonable Adjustment Application form as soon as possible and work with the student to gather the necessary information. For any student seeking a reasonable adjustment, please contact the administrative of The Beverage Clique via [email protected] with the followings:
- Your full name;
- contact information;
- description of the special need, disability or differing ability that requires an adjustment; and
- supporting documentation.
Please submit this information at least 40 working days before the exam date for any qualification. The information you submit will be shared with the corresponding accreditation body and will be handled under their Privacy and Data Protection Policy.
The Beverage Clique will keep records of all reasonable adjustment applications.
Special Consideration
Special consideration is any adjustment given to a student who has temporarily experienced an illness or injury, or other event outside of their control at the time of the exam that significantly affects their ability to take the exam or their ability to show their knowledge and understanding in the assessment. Special consideration is only for things that happen immediately before or during an exam that have a material impact on your, the student’s, ability to take the exam or on your performance.
To be eligible for special consideration, you must have completed the whole course and would have been fully prepared if not for the temporary illness, injury or other uncontrollable event. A special consideration may be for an individual (e.g. a student becomes ill the day of the exam) or a group of students (e.g. an exam is interrupted by a natural disaster). You may be eligible for special consideration if:
- Your performance on the exam is adversely affected by an event outside of your control. This may include temporary illness, temporary injury, bereavement or exam room conditions;
- Reasonable adjustments which were agreed in advance of the exam proved inappropriate or inadequate;
- The application of special consideration would not make a passing result and certificate misleading about the student’s ability to satisfy the qualification’s assessment criteria.
Applying for special consideration
If you have taken an exam, or your exam is immediately approaching, and you feel that you have a temporary injury or illness, or other uncontrollable event that has interfered with your ability to complete your exam, please contact the administrative of The Beverage Clique via [email protected] in written form as soon as possible. We, The Beverage Clique, will provide you with a Special Consideration Application Form, which must be completed and returned with supporting documentation within 3 working days after the effected exam. The information you submit will be shared with corresponding accreditation body and will be handled under their own Privacy and Data Protection Policy. If there has been serious disruption during an exam affecting a group of students, we, The Beverage Clique, will submit a detailed report of the circumstances and candidates affected to request a special consideration.
The Beverage Clique will keep records of all applications for special consideration.
