Code of Conduct: Intellectual Property

Course Summary

Your organization’s intellectual property is one of its most valuable assets — and one that every employee has a shared responsibility to protect and prevent its misuse.

This intellectual property protection mini-training teaches employees what intellectual property is, why it needs protecting, and precisely how to keep it secure.

Why is this training important for workplaces?

Intellectual property encompasses a wide range of intangible assets, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, which are critical for maintaining competitive advantage and driving business success. A well-defined code of conduct provides clear guidelines and expectations for employees regarding the creation, use, and protection of intellectual property. It helps prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of proprietary information, minimizes the risk of infringement lawsuits, and promotes a culture of respect for intellectual property rights.
