IDC EQUITY AND INCLUSION PROFESSIONALSerial 90275212 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: INSTITUTE FOR DIVERSITY CERTIFICATION (IDC), INC.
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Oct 23, 2020
The record shows that “IDC EQUITY AND INCLUSION PROFESSIONAL” is an abandoned application (status dead) filed by the Institute for Diversity Certification (IDC), Inc., and it never reached registration; the USPTO cancelled it on April 1 2024 after the applicant failed to file a required Statement of Use following the Notice of Allowance. The filing covered Class 016 paper goods and printed matter—educational publications, manuals, curricula, brochures and other teaching materials specifically about diversity, equity, inclusion and leadership—and Class 041 education and entertainment services, including workshops, training courses, conferences, online newsletters and related instructional programs in the same fields. A similar name would be most concerning if used for comparable diversity‑focused educational content or training services, because that is the narrow scope the record reflects. The record does not give the owner any blanket control over every use of the words “equity” or “inclusion” outside those described areas. No supplemental‑register filing appears, so the prosecution history simply shows the usual intent‑to‑use process ending in abandonment. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on April 1 2024, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to offer diversity‑related educational materials or workshops under a similar name.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
