Copyright and Copycats
The works, products and services generated by creative businesses and individuals are protected through intellectual property rights, primarily copyright. Knowing how to protect and exploit copyright is a key business skill. This online self-access course offered by the University of Edinburgh will help you understand the law on copyright and related rights in the UK, as relevant to the creative industries. It highlights the scope, impact and application of these rights within different areas of creative practice, and explores copyright issues of particular concern.
This course is designed for people with no previous knowledge of copyright or intellectual property law.
