Copyright & publishing law for musicians & songwriters online training course

The digital revolution has heralded incredible advances in music technology and the way we listen to and share music, but it has also opened a lot of loopholes for your rights of creative ownership to be abused. New communication technologies allow people to easily share and download information, music, images and other intellectual property with the simple click of a mouse, so it’s important to know your rights.
Attorney Brock Shinen will teach you how to make sure your compositions are properly protected. The course covers what types of work can be protected, how best to ensure creative ownership, how to exercise control over your intellectual property, what are standard contract terms, granting rights, exclusivity, termination of rights and equitable compensation.
We use only the world’s finest instructors who have a minimum of 15 years real world experience and are experts in their fields. Unlike a live class you can fast-forward, repeat or rewind your lectures, enabling you to fully understand each topic before moving on. This creates a personal learning experience and gives you all the benefits of hands on training with the flexibility of fitting it in around your busy schedule. The content is not available all at once, but is split into parts to make it more manageable.
