The goal of this training is to build on the skills gained in L-1001 Intellectual Property Consultation Skills by developing the skills of protection of literary, artistic, musical, dramatic & programming works by copyright in Egypt & abroad. The course starts with laying the groundwork of what and how can works be protected by copyright, and then exploited by various licensing models. The course also develops the skills of registering the works to strengthen and enforce protection in Egypt & abroad. Based on our hands-on approach, the course trains on the actual registration applications of each type of work through Egyptian government agencies, as well as select foreign offices and houses. The course equips trainees with the knowledge of what to expect at each stage of the protection process, and the best practices on how to deal with any issues. The trainee is provided with checklists, and forms as a part of a comprehensive system to enable trainee – on completion to protect copyrighted works and neighboring rights in Egypt and abroad. The course concludes with training on how to develop copyright protection strategy for the Client as author or licensee of the work.
Course L-1001 is a pre-requisite to this course. This course can be combined with courses L-1001, L-2002, L-2003 to obtain the Intellectual Property Specialist Certificate (Registration), upon successful completion. All courses are delivered to you through videos with Worksheets, checklists reading materials, and quizzes that you can use for years in your law practice. Courses are delivered online with bi-weekly meetings with NAL LAW ACADEMY instructors to support our trainees in their journey, and maximize the benefit they obtain from our training.
Courses are designed and delivered by Professor Nermien Al-Ali, former professor of Intellectual Property Management at University of New Hampshire, USA and current head of NAL LAW GROUP. She was recognized as the Best IP Lawyer by Legal 500 in 2015.

What is the target audience?
University education is the basis to the practice of law, but it does not develop legal practical skills that a lawyer needs to practice. In addition, law faculties in Egypt focus on the general fields of law (such as civil and criminal law) and rarely expose learners to new or specialized legal fields like intellectual property. This creates the need for practical training that develops legal skills and pass on to the trainees the experience of the specialists in the field.
Our L-Series Courses and Certificates are designed for:
- Fresh law graduates interested in the field of intellectual property,
- Practicing lawyers wishing to work in the filed of intellectual property,
- Law professors, and other legal practitioners.
Part I - Local & International Protection of Copyright Skills
Part II - Local & International Protection of Neighboring Rights Skills
Part III - Case Study: Apply Skills
