Preferred label	Education; providing of training; entertainment; sporting and cultural activities
Definition	Education activities in Class 41 include providing small seminars or symposia to full courses of degree studies at universities. Services that are integral to education but do not include teaching activities are also classified in Class 41. Such services include the publication of books or texts (other than publication of publicity texts that are classified in Class 35) and lending library services. Education services in Class 41 involve the more formal or traditional forms of education, such as classes, seminars, workshops or degree programs, as well as other forms of education or training, such as, gymnastic courses, practical training and the training of animals. It should be noted that although all information educates the recipient to some extent, information services are not considered educational services. Information services are classified according to the subject matter of the information, therefore they can be in any of the eleven service classes. Of course, if an information service refers to educational matters, it should be classified in Class 41. Class 41 further includes the provision of sporting and cultural activities and the facilities for the realization or housing of those activities. It also includes services that entertain or amuse people, such as, organizing beauty contests and gaming, as well as entertainment-related services like the rental of video tapes and planning of parties. Services that are tangential to sporting and cultural activities may not be in Class 41. An example of such a service is business management of performing artists which is in Class 35.
