This module will introduce you to the core concepts of trade marks and trade mark registration. It is divided into three main parts: definition, registration and infringement.

We will look at the definition of a trade mark, the grounds on which registration can be refused, and the importance of distinctive character. We will find out how to register a trade mark, and what happens after registration. Finally, we will examine the rights and scope of protection afforded by trade marks, and look at aspects of trade mark infringement.
