The Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys (CIPA) is the professional and examining body for patent attorneys (also known as patent agents) in the UK. The Institute was founded in 1882 and was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1891. It represents virtually all the 1800 registered patent attorneys in the UK, whether they practise in industry or in private practice. Total membership is over 3000 and includes trainee patent attorneys and other professionals with an interest in intellectual property matters.
Ensuring that your trainee patent attorney receives the training that they need can be a valuable but time-consuming task. Base your training programme on the newly-updated CIPA Training Manual, and you have a structured framework of study already prepared.
