Intellectual Property in training design

default-16x9

Hi there,

When designing sessions in a training workshop, is there a set of simple IP guidelines that apply to using well known models and approaches?  I know the rules about crediting any models used to the owners but if I tweak a model slightly, is this also covered?

I'm trying hard not to fall foul of any legalities and am also keen to ensure that I am giving the credit and recognition due, but want to know how far I need to go and any pitfalls I need to look out for - all help, suggestions and advice genuinely welcome!

Thanks

Julie

  1. Sources for models etc

    It is a hard one to give a general guideline on, each model has its own IP.  Of course you must credit source, but you must also make sure you are allowed to copy / use etc.

    I put up a list of useful links on my site which may be a good starting point for many popular training ‘things’:

    If in doubt, check! Asking IP owners’ permission is a good move.  

    Another great place to check is http://www.trainingballs.com – Alan usefully explains the provenance and usually IP issues too.

    Good luck,
