About This Course

In the age of information sharing, product patenting has become almost as important as the product itself. This CLE course will explain the various complexities involved in product patenting as well as define the different types of patents and their importance. The course will also describe, in detail, the patent application process, the different between patents and intellectual property protection, the typical lifespan of patents, how to prevent the loss of rights and the legal requirements for patentability. The process of patenting is far more complex than people realize.
