IPUnlocked℠ — Practical Intellectual Property Training for Paralegals

If you are interested in building skills in intellectual property practice, IPUnlocked provides practical training designed specifically for paralegals and legal professionals.
Developed by Paralegal Virtual Solutions, these programs focus on the real-world workflows used in intellectual property practice, helping paralegals understand how matters move through the USPTO process and how legal teams manage filings, correspondence, and deadlines.
Rather than focusing only on legal theory, IPUnlocked training explains the practical tasks that support IP prosecution and proceedings — from reviewing USPTO correspondence to preparing filings and tracking critical deadlines.
