New Competency Profiles for Patent Agents and Trademark Agents  

Should you wish to receive a recording, please email education@ipic.ca.

The College of Patent Agents and Trademark Agents (CPATA) has developed new competency profiles, one for patent agents and one for trademark agents. A competency profile is a description of the knowledge and skills agents need to provide competent IP services to their clients. The establishment of clear expectations for practitioners will protect the public interest by ensuring that all new and current licensees have the skills necessary to serve their clients in a competent and ethical manner.
