As a past Director of the Patents course and the current Co-Chair of all three courses, I have been so impressed over the years by the level of instruction and听 the ever-evolving diversity of topics. We certainly cover the fundamentals but we also cover commercialization and dispute-related topics that are important to those involved in the business of IP.
