IEEPI1 WP3 Web-based platform for the training materials developed in WP4. EPO (PD 0.8) WP4 (i) Harvest existing IP training material from the member states; & (ii) create teaching modules therewith. EPO (PD 5.4) WP5 Use material to train trainers; 40 events (each of 1-3 days) in 20 countries. EBN2 WP6 Pilot training programme to prove that those trained in WP5 can train others effectively.

  6. WP4(i) - Harvesting • During the spring 2007 harvesting of existing IP training material in four streams: • (1) Some consortium partners (mostly NPOs) were asked to provide material from their own country. • (2) Some MS with no consortium partner were contacted directly by the Academy. • (3) The NPOs of three MS with no consortium partner (NL, SE, UK) were asked to harvest in their own country. • (4) The Academy also made requests of e.g. ProTon, Eureka, IRCs, WIPO, OHIM, LESI, epi etc. 1/2/2020

  7. WP4(ii) – creating training modules • Over 150 separate IP training materials, in several languages, were catalogued according to topic. • Partners declared in May 2007 which modules they wanted to write, supported by the harvested material. • During the summer the partners formed into teams of e.g. 2-3 institutions to write a total of 12 modules. • Each module to comprise 3 teaching hours and use a range of didactic methods. • The EPO and EBN take the lead on Quality Control. 1/2/2020
