State of the Art Searching
This course will teach you the essential skills for conducting a comprehensive 'state of the art' patent search.
Our expert trainer will guide you through selecting the right content, putting together and executing an effective search strategy, and analysing and reporting your findings.
While the focus is on patent searching, the course also explores when and how to incorporate other technical literature into your state of the art review, depending on your specific field.
A state of the art search must be broader than a typical patentability search. You will learn how to balance recall and precision, ensuring relevance for optimal results. The course emphasizes practical techniques, including the use of patent classifications, patent citations, and name searching, to build a robust collection for an initial state of the art review.
Given that the state of the art is always evolving, the course will also cover how to stay up to date by setting up effective technology patent monitoring processes. This will ensure you remain informed about the latest advancements in your field.
