Exceptions to Copyright, 11 June 2025 - 9:30am-1pm

Who should attend?

Exceptions to copyright provide opportunities to use copyright protected works without the need to get permission from rights holders. However, they can only be used in specific contexts defined by the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988, as amended and revised. This intermediate course explores exceptions to copyright and how they can be used to support a broad range of activities.

Suitable for participants who want to understand how to apply the UK exceptions to copyright when using content created by others. It will be of particular interest to those working across cultural heritage and educational establishments.
