License Architecture

B2B LICENSES · EDUCATION, TRAINING, AND USE

Substantive content.
A clear framework for use.

M.E.A.T. develops educational formats and specialized systems that organizations can use within an agreed-upon framework. A license links content, use, and responsibility—it is more than just the distribution of materials.

Clear roles and transparent quality criteria are intended to ensure the technical substance of the work in the respective context and enable its use beyond individual contributors. The scope and duration are determined by the agreement.

FOUR POSSIBLE LICENSING OPTIONS

What should your organization implement or develop?

This selection highlights a path and the responsibilities associated with it. All paths remain clearly visible. This presentation is intended as a guide; it does not constitute an automatic eligibility assessment, offer configuration, or authorization.

License an Existing Educational Format

Implement a proven program in educational offerings or workplace training.

Usage
The format, scope of application, target audience, and authorized use are specified.
Responsibility
Licensees and M.E.A.T. will clarify matters regarding instructors, course delivery, materials, assessments, and course completion documents.
Clarify separately
Implementation, quality assurance, updates, and maintenance are agreed upon on a project-by-project basis.

Train Instructors

Train full-time or freelance instructors in the subject-specific and pedagogical application of the material.

Usage
Personal proficiency, instructional application, and organizational use are described separately.
Responsibility
The administration, evaluation, and issuance of personal certificates are explicitly assigned.
Clarify separately
A personal license does not confer any automatic organizational, trademark, or sublicensing rights.

Develop or customize the format together

Adapt a format to a specific task or develop a subject-specific, pedagogical educational framework.

Usage
The subject of development, the agreed-upon status of the results, and subsequent use are considered in relation to one another.
Responsibility
The client and development partner coordinate technical contributions, decisions, implementation, and maintenance.
Clarify separately
A development contract and a license or usage agreement are distinct subject matters of performance.

Integrate a system or application

Integrate a specialized system or application into a defined organizational context.

Usage
The system, type of use, and user group are specifically identified. Technical use and educational value are not the same thing.
Responsibility
The system provider, the organization, and, if applicable, the implementation partner each retain clearly defined responsibilities.
Clarify separately
Access, integration, and any potential white-label use will be reviewed and agreed upon separately.

RIGHTS ARE NOT TRANSFERRED IN THEIR ENTIRETY

Seven legal issues are included in the agreement.

Usage

The purpose, user group, and scope of use will be specifically agreed upon.

Implementation

The party authorized to perform a format is determined by the relevant agreement.

Brand

The use of trademarks and logos is permitted only within the scope expressly authorized.

Adjustment

Adjustments to content or teaching methods require their own regulations.

Evaluation

Assessment and testing tasks are assigned to the individuals responsible for them.

Certification and Issuance of Certificates

A license does not automatically confer the authority to certify or issue M.E.A.T. certifications.

Sublicensing

Disclosure and sublicensing are permitted only with express contractual authorization.

CURRENT EDUCATIONAL FORMATS AVAILABLE FOR LICENSING

Six formats, each with its own specialized focus.

The six educational formats make up the current licensing portfolio. DKA CoreFlex®, whether as a digital application or for potential white-label use, is subject to a separate agreement.

SCOPE OF THE LICENSE AND DEVELOPMENT

Not every project uses the same license.

Experts organize a modular learning architecture

Depending on the task, didactic structural models, learning architectures, and assessment frameworks may be the subject of an agreed-upon use.

Experts work together in a hands-on educational setting

Educational formats can be integrated into an organizational framework as courses, training series, or modular programs.

Blank elements are organized into a traceable quality structure

Curricula, guidelines, quality criteria, and examination structures may also be developed on a project-by-project basis or agreed upon for use. This does not entail any automatic rights to administer examinations or issue certificates, nor does it constitute a comprehensive package available to all.

Customized Educational and Program Development

ORGANIZATION AND DEPLOYMENT

A one-off collaboration or a long-term partnership?

Educational institutions and training providers, companies with continuing education needs, and organizations with multiple locations can incorporate specialized content and formats into their work.

A single-format license is just as possible as a more extensive system or program partnership. Long-term involvement is a potential prospect, not a general exclusion criterion for individual initiatives. A more extensive partnership can support usage beyond individual events and individuals.

A clear purpose, defined responsibilities, and a willingness to assess quality in a transparent manner are crucial. Unclear goals, purely symbolic partnerships, or simply adopting materials without a professional framework do not lead to a robust implementation.

FROM THE PROPOSAL TO THE AGREED USE

The scope is determined by the collaboration.

  1. Clarify the Goal and Context

    The scope, organization, target audience, and expectations are discussed. Only then can a suitable licensing or collaboration framework be developed.

  2. Define Usage and Limits

    The subject matter, nature of the assignment, rights, obligations, quality requirements, and limitations are defined on a case-by-case basis. The scope, duration, and compensation depend on the content, responsibilities, and nature of the assignment; there is no predefined, flat-rate licensing package.

  3. Schedule an Introduction

    A proper introduction can help foster understanding and application. The specific preparation, materials, or support required will be agreed upon separately.

  4. Use within the defined framework

    The organization uses the format or system in accordance with the agreed-upon terms. Clear responsibilities are assigned for instructors, implementation, materials, assessments, and final documents.

  5. Verify Quality in a Traceable Manner

    Feedback, criteria, and potential adjustments can support quality assurance. Evaluation and ongoing support are not automatically included as an ongoing service.

  6. Coordinate Further Development

    Iteration, updates, maintenance, and potential scaling are agreed upon on a project-by-project basis. Structure can support reliable use and further development, but does not guarantee results. Licenses enhance collaboration; they do not replace it.

OTHER POSSIBLE USES

White Label will be reviewed to ensure it is suitable for the project.

White-label use can be arranged for systems, applications, or educational formats. Availability and specifics depend on the particular project.

Introduction, instructor training, quality assurance, evaluation, updates, and maintenance are agreed upon on a case-by-case basis for each project. A license does not automatically grant all rights to teach, administer exams, use the brand, or distribute the material.
