The program will bring together assistant attorneys general, assistant district attorneys, paralegals, investigators, and police officers to learn more about intellectual property laws and investigatory techniques. The agenda includes a comprehensive overview of intellectual property crimes -- their effect on consumers and businesses and the nexus to other crimes. The agenda also includes sessions on investigating intellectual property crimes, case development, jurisdiction, prosecutorial theories, consumer education efforts, and working collaboratively with other law enforcement offices.
Course Prerequisites

Since Intellectual Property enforcement may be handled by different divisions in each office and touches upon several disciplines, NAGTRI has made scholarships available to staff from consumer protection, antitrust, civil, criminal, cybercrime, policy divisions, or other divisions or units that may have an interest in learning more about intellectual property rights enforcement. Nominees may be assistant attorneys general, paralegals, or investigators.
Fee Requirements
