This free USPTO event series provides a comprehensive overview of the process for federal trademark registration and maintaining a federal trademark. If you're a small business owner or entrepreneur seeking to protect your brand and product identities, Trademark Basics Boot Camp is for you. Offered regularly throughout the year, each series runs weekly for eight weeks, with each module focusing on different aspects of trademarks and the registration process, from filing and examination to post-registration requirements. Each module concludes with a question-and-answer period where attendees can ask USPTO trademark experts questions. In this fourth module, we’ll focus on the requirements for an initial trademark application, covering essential topics such as trademark basics, drawings, identifications of goods and services, filing bases, specimens and ornamentation, and finding help. Space is limited, so registration is required by October 26, 2026.
