Presented by Alma Hales, Head of Intellectual Property at the Open University and Bernadette Attwell, former Deputy Head of Intellectual Property at the Open University and co-owner of Copy-Right Consultants Ltd with Alma Hales, the course will provide participants with an up-to-date and clear understanding of how to approach the process of rights clearance.
Participants will gain an understanding of:

Understanding copyright and how to clear the rights in existing content for inclusion in new services and productions is a significant challenge for producers, researchers and multimedia developers. Now universities and colleges face these challenges as they plan to re-publish existing content in online courseware delivered through virtual learning environments.
The course will include practical advice, easy to understand guidance and the opportunity to have specific rights-related queries answered by leading practitioners in the field.
