On March 22, 2011, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office registered CO-OP as a trademark owned by the International Ombudsman Association. Consumers are now assured that the mark certifies that the Ombuds has demonstrated competency by meeting certain educational and experiential standards. The legal designation also provides IOA with additional remedies for unauthorized use of the designation. (USPTO Trademark Document Retrieval, US Serial No: 77827746.)
