These expenses have included, for example, patent bar study course and exam costs.

An official announcement—setting the application period, qualifications, and requirements—is expected to be circulated by the IP Law Section around December 2021 to January 2022. (Details from the last offering of this scholarship are available here: 2021 IP Certification Course Scholarship Announcement.)
