IP Practice: Maximising Government's IP Assets
11 February 2009 (Limited to Government officers)
In this module of the IP Practice series, participants will start off with understanding how IP assets can be identified in an organisation. They will then be introduced to the variety of exploitation forms and vehicles – from a simple assignment or licence, to franchises, collaborations and spin-outs. An examination will be undertaken of the different treatments needed in handling registrable IP rights (patents, trade marks, registered designs) from non-registered IP rights (know-how, confidential information, copyright) and how these can be bundled effectively. Assessment and determining factors in deciding on type and form of exploitation mechanisms will be discussed.

Patent Practice Modules Course
16 March – 25 August 2009
The path to professional qualification as a patent agent is long and demanding. It takes years of practice before anyone can be adequately prepared for the patent agent qualifying examinations. At times, trainees need more practice than that to which they are exposed in their firms or organisations. Self-study alone is unlikely to lead to success in the exams because they are practice based, and require intensive preparation by doing exercises and by receiving constructive criticism by more experienced agents.
The IP Academy’s Patent Practice Modules aim to provide that additional support to trainees with tutelage from experienced patent agents and practice, practice, practice!
