IPReg Accreditation Withdrawal Procedure

In 2020 we consulted on a high-level draft procedure for withdrawal of IPReg accreditation of a course or examination. 

The consultation responses we received are provided below:   

Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys Consultation Response 

Chartered Institute of Trade Mark Attorneys Consultation Response

Nottingham Law School, Nottingham Trent University Consultation Response

Patent Examination Board Consultation Response

Queen Mary University London, Centre for Commercial Law Studies, Consultation Response

A big thank-you to these stakeholders for their feedback which we have taken full and serious account of and have made substantial revisions to the procedure as a result, as are detailed in this Consultation Feedback and Response Table.

The IPReg Accreditation Withdrawal Procedure was agreed by the 5 November 2020 meeting by Board.
