SYSTEM LAYER — ACADEMIC TRAINING
Patent Drawing School — Visio Edition
Structured academic training for teaching patent-ready figure creation in Microsoft Visio.
SYSTEM NOTE
Training-only access is intended for academic, evaluation, and instructional use. Professional production work requires the Starter Package (Training + Toolkit).
CURRICULUM + CERTIFICATION
Patent Drawing School — Visio Edition
Role-based instruction aligned with real patent drawing workflows.
Patent Drawing School teaches the IP DaVinci drawing method used across the Starter Package, Toolkit, Cloud Workspace, and Studio. Academic institutions may license Training independently for teaching, certification, and evaluation.
ROLE-BASED LEARNING
Role-Based Learning Paths
Training is modular and role-specific. Attorneys, paralegals, engineers, reviewers, and students follow different Learning Paths depending on their responsibilities.
Note
Instructors may assign specific modules or allow self-selected progression.

How Training Fits into the IP DaVinci System
Training is the learning layer of the IP DaVinci System.
- Training teaches the method.
- The Toolkit enables production.
- Maintenance keeps the system current.
- Cloud solves device access.
- Studio supports delegation.
Academic programs often begin with Training, then expand into production licensing when needed.
Who This Is For
Education-first environments.
Universities
- Teach practical patent drawing skills
- Support clinics and coursework
Professors & Instructors
- Structured, ready-to-teach curriculum
- Certification pathways
Evaluation Programs
- Assess before adopting production tooling
- Align faculty on one method
