Intellectual property for accountants – train the adviser

The EUIPO is organising a free training on Intellectual Property for Accountants in collaboration with Accountancy Europe and ACCA. It will help accountants understand intellectual property (IP) and the importance and impact that IP Rights could have on the business of their clients.

The training, which includes certification for its participants, will take place via two videoconferences:

  • 25 March: presentation on the importance of intellectual property for business
  • 28 March: workshop with practical case studies to identify IP Rights and the potential benefits for businesses
