ABOUT THE COURSE

Intellectual Property Rights viz., patent, design, trademarks, copyright, etc. are key components for business success and tools for enhancing the competitiveness of Industries. Intellectual Property Regime in India has been substantially refurbished after joining TRIPS by amending all IP legislations. As India is one of the largest economies in the world and plays a major role in IPR on the global IPR platform, it is necessary to develop an efficient IPR regime in the country which will result in building a strong IPR profile for the stakeholders and, in turn, for the country that will strengthen “Make In India” and “Atmanirbhar Bharat” in the long run. However, at present, there is a lack of sufficient understanding and knowledge of IPRs among the people dealing with IPRs at different levels including post-TRIPs developments in IPR and digital reforms that have simplified IPR procedures and made them user-friendly. In view of this, the One Week Online Certificate Course in Trademarks, Copyrights, and Design Protection in India and Recent Developments is curated to impart clinical legal education.

The course is meticulously designed to impart detailed legal and practical knowledge on all aspects of Trademarks, Copyrights, and Designs along with recent technical developments and process re-engineering that have taken place over the years. Faculties for the present course include senior officials of the Indian Intellectual Property Office and reputed IPR professionals who are known for their knowledge and expertise.
