Online sessions on becoming a patent agent or attorney

[Undergraduate Law BA]

If you are interested in becoming a Patent Agent or Attorney, you need a BA degree (or at least two years of coursework) in engineering, computer sciences or the hard sciences (chemistry, biology, physics, or related fields), and to pass the patent exam. You can take the patent exam after completing one year of law school (JD program). See https://www.uspto.gov/sites/default/fil ... ED_GRB.pdf

Practising Law Institute (PLI) invites you to an online presentation by Mark Dighton, PLI's Director of Law School Relations and Administrative Director of their Patent Office Exam Course. Topics for discussion include:

· The latest info on the Patent Office Exam,

· Who can take it (including the new "design patent bar")

· How it works (it's on computer and “on demand”),

· When you should take it (you don't need to…and probably shouldn't…wait until you graduate), and

· Recommendations on when and how to study for this very difficult Exam.

Scholarships to PLI's other IP programs will also be discussed.

Just sign up for ONE of the presentations below. (All of the talks are the same. And all times are EASTERN.)
