Pre-evaluation Review of WIPO Academy Academic Institutions & Executive Program
Overview
The Academy is WIPO’s core entity for the delivery of IP education, training, and human capacity-building services, particularly for developing countries, least developed countries (LDCs), and countries with economies in transition. The Academy conducts three programs: WIPO IP Learning Section (previously referred to as Distance Learning Program), WIPO Academic Institutions and Executive Program (before March 15, 2024, this was known as the Professional Development Program), which includes WIPO summer schools; and IP Training Institutions. The WIPO Academy Academic Institutions and Executive Program aims to support access to intellectual property (IP) education at the graduate level, especially for participants from developing countries, least-developed countries (LDCs), and countries in transition. The primary forms of such support are curricula development and syllabi, provision of IP textbooks and reference materials, and support for guest lecturers to deliver graduate courses in IP, focusing on the international aspects of IP. The pre-evaluation review covers an understanding of the WIPO Academy Academic Institutions and Executive Program, the types and number of university partnerships, candidate admission procedures, and scholarship procedures, the procurement processes of experts, lecturers, and visiting guest lecturers, the structure of the program; and the impact of the Joint Masters/LLM programs as per the WIPO Academy mandate.Report Details
