& Training > Advanced Patent &
Licensing Seminar
BSKB offers a two-week Advanced
Patent and
 Licensing
Seminar (APLS) in the autumn. The APLS includes workshops and problem solving
relating to patents, in order to illustrate the more advanced concepts with regard to
prosecution, claim interpretation, and validity and infringement issues.
 Registration
for the APLS is limited so that this program may be conducted in an
advantageously small seminar format.
The 2007 Seminar included
participants from six countries: Germany,
Japan, Korea, Mexico, Sweden, and Taiwan.
In addition to the
academic experience, BSKB strives to help our foreign participants
enjoy,
 appreciate
and experience the American way of life and culture. Our participants
are afforded the opportunity to explore not only that which Washington,
DC has to offer, but we also encourage our participants to take the
opportunity to learn about the other cultures represented among our APLS
participants. Many friendships and business relationships are made
during the course of the program and last long after the program
concludes.
To encourage those
relationships, BSKB
arranges
several evening activities throughout the course of the program. These
activities include not only an opening "getting to know you" dinner and
a closing banquet and graduate ceremony, but also a cultural event like
a concert or theater, and a weekend retreat in the beautiful mountains
of western Maryland.
The 2008 APLS will be held 22 September -
3 October 2008.
The
2008
program brochure and
registration form
are posted here. Graduates of the
Summer Training Program and other similarly qualified applicants are
invited to attend.
