Sign-Up Open for May STEPP Training

Sign-up is now open to attend the USPTO's three-day training course on examination practice and procedure, May 9-11, at the agency's Rocky Mountain Regional Office in Denver, Colorado. The course is offered to members of the public as part of our Stakeholder Training on Examination Practice and Procedure (STEPP) program, intended for those who have recently passed the Patent Bar for the purpose of practicing before the USPTO. The training will make use of statutes, rules, and guidelines relevant to practicing before the USPTO and will be led by USPTO trainers based on material developed for training patent examiners and other employees. More information, and a proposed upcoming course schedule, is available on the USPTO STEPP page.
