The Copyright & IP Officer provides at least two copyright workshops at the Laucala Campus each semester as well as at  various campuses during the year.  These sessions give staff greater awareness of copyright as it affects them in providing educational resources for students, online or offline.  Similar workshops are provided for students to raise awareness of Copyright and Intellectual Property.

The Copyright & IP Officer is also available to:

• provide workshops tailored to the specific concerns of staff in your department or school;
• attend staff meetings to talk about copyright;
• provide tutorials to students on copyright and IP issues.

 

To organise any of these sessions, contact the Copyright & IP Officer.

Regional communities may also contact the USP Copyright & IP Officer to arrange a workshop on copyright and/or Intellectual Property issues for interested staff, communities or stakeholders. To do so you should contact the Copyright & IP Officer by email or phone +679 323 1528.

A unit on Intellectual Property in the Research Context can be accessed by staff and students through Epigeium's Research Training Skills on Moodle.
