The Guidelines for Examination in the European Patent Office are an important tool when preparing for the EQE, as well as an extremely valuable resource during the examination itself. It is, however, sometimes difficult to find the information a candidate is looking for - especially during the exam.
We are thus proud to announce the publication of a second version of Indexes to the Guidelines. Previously the Indexes to the Guidelines only worked with the English, PDF copy of the Guidelines, but now it work with all versions (DE, FR, EN).
