Since 1999, the WIPO Academy has been offering distance learning (DL) courses, covering all aspects of intellectual property (IP), to both professionals and those new to the field. We are the only institution offering online IP courses in more than ten languages.

Our offerings include hybrid, executive and certification courses. We also assist national IP offices and universities who wish to create localized IP training content by customizing our courses.

Interaction between our students and faculty of renowned academics from universities worldwide, takes place online through our discussion forums.
