A Certified Canadian Trademark Administrator demonstrates the competencies required to assist a trademark agent or lawyer practicing in the field of trademark law. Duties cover a wide range of tasks related to the administration of trademarks such as conducting trademark searches, preparing trademark applications, paying government fees, docketing deadlines, preparing correspondence with the Trademarks Office, drafting letters to clients, assisting with the administration of contentious proceedings.
IMPORTANT – COURSE 1 AND 2
Course materials for Course 1 – Trademark Foundations and Lifecycle and Course 2 – Searches and Filing a Trademark Application have been updated to reflect changes to the Trademarks Act, the Trademarks Regulations, and new CIPO Practice Notices that came into force on June 17, 2019. Access to both Course 1 and Course 2 has resumed.
PROGRAM INTERRUPTION – COURSE 3 AND Course 4
Courses are interrupted while materials are updated to reflect changes to the Trademarks Regulations, CIPO Practice Notices as well as procedures to the trademark filing system. While registration remains open, access to course materials remains suspended throughout August.
There are no pre-requisites to enroll in any of the 4 courses. They are primarily intended for trademark assistants, trademark paralegals, and trademark clerks seeking the certification of trademark administrator. The courses will also be of interest to individuals wishing to acquire knowledge of trademark administration.
The courses are delivered online and are self-paced. The study materials include quizzes (Q&A), as well as practice assignments accompanied by model answers. Students will have access to a trademark agent who will answer questions and provide guidance in “Ask the Expert” format.
There is no time limit to complete the courses which are offered on demand.
Once all 4 courses are completed, you may register and sit for the online exam. Once you pass the exam, you may obtain the designation of Certified Canadian Trademark Administrator exclusive to IPIC members.
