Learn about the PTAB Judicial Law Clerk Program

The "Learn about the PTAB Judicial Law Clerk Program" event is an informative webinar organized by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). This session aims to provide an in-depth overview of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) Judicial Law Clerk Program, detailing its structure, objectives, and the application process.

Key topics covered during the event include the responsibilities and experiences associated with the Judicial Law Clerk role, eligibility criteria for applicants, and comprehensive guidance on how to apply. The webinar also features a panel discussion with current and former PTAB law clerks, as well as administrative patent judges, who share insights into the benefits and professional growth opportunities offered by the program.

Attendees have the opportunity to engage in a question-and-answer session following the presentation, allowing for direct interaction with the panelists. This event is particularly beneficial for second and third-year law students, recent law school graduates, and early-career attorneys interested in gaining hands-on experience in patent law through a clerkship at the PTAB.
