Target group: The course is aimed at legal practitioners seeking an introduction to European intellectual property law.

E-learning: Participants will be provided with the opportunity to prepare for the course online and test their knowledge via ERA's moodle website. The e-learning course is now available. Please contact us for further information.

Visit to the European Court of Justice: The course includes a visit to the European Court of Justice. The size of visitor groups to the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg is strictly limited by the Court for practical reasons. Unfortunately we are therefore unable to guarantee that all summer course participants will be able to attend. Places for the ECJ visit will be allocated to registered participants on a 'first come, first served' basis.
