We are developing a range of courses, guidebooks, and hands-on workshops to cover all aspects of invention and innovation.

• Whether you're on your own in a workshop or controlling the largest company,
• whether you're creating technology for sale or buying-in technology for competitive advantage,
• whether you're having your initial thoughts or you're in the final rollout,

we've got training which will tell you all you need to know to harness the incredible power of innovation.

When you're taking your first few steps into the intellectual property minefield, you are probably feeling somewhat nervous! Nothing is more important - either to the professional inventor or to the IPR manager - than in-depth knowledge and skill. They give you the ability to take good decisions quickly, and the confidence that comes from understanding the entire intellectual property lifecycle.

The best way to acquire that knowledge is through high-quality training. We've got courses and backgrounders that will show you how to propel your idea from that first spark of brilliance right up to the glittering lifestyle which the best inventions can command.

All our courses are provided as printed materials, which means you can work through them at your own pace. They come with extensive on-line and telephone support. Everything you need to design and manage the products of the future is right here!

Some skills are learned much better using a hands-on approach. All our workshops are conducted in small groups, so you get the full benefit of the material. We use real examples taken from your own business, so that as you learn the principles you get to apply them right away!

We run our workshops regularly from our premises in Scotland, and from venues around the UK. We can even arrange site visits, so you can train several of your personnel and explore the challenges of your own business in complete confidentiality.
