What this programme is about

The world of intellectual property can be complex and confusing and this course is designed to get you up to speed on the main types: what they are, how to protect and exploit your own intellectual property and how to avoid infringing someone else’s. It is a perfect one-day primer designed to make you feel like a ‘mini-expert’ in every area of intellectual property rights in both practical and commercial terms. By familiarising you with the most important legislation and case law, the course will also arm you with the ability to look up further questions yourself.

In addition, the day will offer an invaluable opportunity to ask the expert trainer about any particular issues that may affect you and your business and to interact with other delegates and learn from their experiences.

This training course is part of our Commercial & Business Law Training Course collection which has been designed for the in-house lawyer.

The presentation as a whole was very useful and I would happily attend another webinar, especially if presented by Mark. Mark continued to keep the group engaged and responded to all questions when asked with helpful and informative responses. Copyright and Trademark was the most useful for me, but I found moral rights very interesting as an area I hadn't been exposed to before.
