Professor Paul L. Gardner, widely acknowledged as one of Americas leading patent law experts.

Course Description
The Winning Patents Workshop is designed specifically for entry-level patent practitionersthose with up to two years of patent drafting and prosecution experience. And our 2012 Workshop has been updated to reflect relevant changes introduced by the AIA, including the entirely new 102 prior art criteria, which become effective in March 2013. Through lectures and an interactive, small-group exercise, attendees will: I Learn prudent practices for preparing and prosecuting applications that maximize the value of patents you obtain for your clients. I Develop an understanding of recent Federal Circuit case law, which resulted in claims being either unduly narrowly interpreted, and therefore held to be not infringed, or held to

be invalid for lack of written description or enablement support, due to improvidently prepared and prosecuted applications. I Appreciate what ought to be said and not said in the specifications, claims, and responses to Office actions, and why. I Compose and prosecute a patent application in their chosen technology (chemical, mechanical/ electrical, or biotechnology), based on a disclosure, prior art, and Office actions carefully created by PRG.

Dont miss this opportunity to learn from the pros who know how to win at the Federal Circuit! You (and your employer) will be glad you did.
Syllabus: The detailed course syllabus can be accessed online at www.patentresources.com. Tuition: Tuition for the four-day Workshop is only $2,995. For more information about PRGs Winning Patents Workshops, visit www.patentresources.com.
