Week 8 Discussion: Final Project Handbook
The discussion this week is for you to reflect on the material, examples, and research that you have conducted so far in this course. The culminating final project for this course is the creation of a Final Project Handbook. Throughout the course, you have worked on many assignments that have been to prepare you for the creation of different parts the final project handbook. This week on the discussion board the focus will be on the purpose behind creating a handbook of this type in the first place.
Describe the purpose of the handbook with a focus on the audience the handbook is meant for. What should the focus of the handbook be? How would you use the handbook as a patent engineer manager to train the employees you supervise to make sure they have the knowledge they need to be successful in their job? One of the sections of the handbook that everyone is asked to individually complete is a mission statement.
On this week’s discussion thread share your mission statement and describe how you wrote it. What factors did you consider the most important and what are you hoping to accomplish with your handbook.
In your two responses to your peers consider not only your rationale for the purpose of the handbook but also their rationale for the same issue. Compare your mission statement to theirs, in particular, focusing on the similarities or differences in focus and stated purpose of the handbook. As you interact with your peers consider all that you have learned in this course and how your opinions and thoughts may have changed throughout the course.

Hello everyone,
The handbook is a manual for a patent engineer to understand the overall process of patenting right from the innovation stages to obtaining the patent. The dos and don’ts that are related to the patent applications and the tasks that need to be completed after the patent application is completed are complex and must be completed within a certain timeframe.
My mission statement is “Motivating patent engineers to innovate and help them understand the importance of intellectual property and patent processes”.
This class has made me recognize how complex the overall process of obtaining a patent is. I am certain that I will use this knowledge in my career and help my friends and colleagues understand the importance of patenting.
Regards,
Tanmay.

Hello all, the purpose of this handbook that we are currently completing is to guide patent engineers in the best manner to determine, file, and prosecute patent applications. The focus should be a teaching document with the objective of showing an engineer how to do certain tasks and give away of reviewing their ability to complete. I would use the document as a training tool again, since we are completing a test guide to ensure comprehension it would be a few training sessions followed by the end test.
My mission statement is “Empower our employees through excellent training to protect our customers intellectual property”. I wrote this mission statement using the factors of the handbook being an excellent source of training materials and helping the engineers understand what is necessary to protect our customers IP. Another extremely important factor to consider is attracting clients to protect their IP.
Thank you everyone for the comments all term and your wonderful insights!
