Washington College of Law YT14
If you are a student with an undergrad degree (or at least two years of coursework) in engineering, computer sciences or the hard sciences (chemistry, biology, physics, some related fields), and are interested in becoming a Patent Agent or Attorney, Practising Law Institute (PLI) invites you to a presentation by John White, Academic Director of PLI’s Patent Office Exam Course. Topics for discussion include:
• The latest info on the Patent Office Exam,
• Who can take it,
• How it works, now that 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),
• How the America Invents Act is impacting the Exam, and
• Recommendations on when and how to study for this very difficult Exam.
Mr. White is a patent lawyer and has prepared applicants for the Patent Bar Exam since 1988. He has more than 20 years of experience in all aspects of intellectual property, including patent and trademark prosecution, litigation, infringement and validity analysis and opinion writing. He will also discuss tips for the job search and practice. Scholarships to PLI's other IP programs will also be discussed.
All are welcome, but pizza will be ordered based on the CareerLink registrations: http://bit.ly/2xd2IvB
