includes a system of 13 national marine
¯
¯
sanctuaries and Papahanaumokuakea
and Rose Atoll marine national
monuments. National marine
sanctuaries protect our nation’s most
vital coastal and marine natural and
cultural resources, and through active
research, management, and public
engagement, sustain healthy
environments that are the foundation for
thriving communities and stable
economies. One of the many ways
ONMS ensures public participation in
the designation and management of
national marine sanctuaries is through
the formation of advisory councils. The
Sanctuary System Business Advisory
Council (council) has been formed to
provide advice and recommendations to
the Director regarding the relationship
of ONMS with the business community.
Additional information on the council
can be found at https://

Matters to be Considered: The
meeting will provide an opportunity for
council members to hear news from

System and review and comment on
program initiatives. For a complete

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) surveys
international and domestic participants
of the USPTO’s Global Intellectual
Property Academy (GIPA) training
programs to obtain feedback from the
participants on the effectiveness of the
various services provided to them in the
training programs. GIPA was established
in 2006 to offer training programs on the
enforcement of intellectual property
rights, patents, trademarks, and
copyright. The training programs offered
by GIPA are designed to meet the
specific needs of foreign government
officials (including judges; prosecutors;
police; customs officials; patent,
trademark, and copyright officials; and
policy makers) concerning various
intellectual property topics, such as
global intellectual property rights
protection, enforcement, and strategies
to handle the protection and
enforcement issues in their respective
countries.
This collection contains three surveys
directed to separate audiences: Preprogram, post-program, and alumni. The
pre-program survey is designed to
obtain the background and experience
of a participant and is delivered to the
participant prior to their arrival for a
GIPA training program. The postprogram survey is used to analyze the
overall effectiveness of the program and
is conducted at the conclusion of the
training program. The alumni survey is
used to determine the value of the GIPA
