Structure of the Invent Idaho Program graphic

NOTE: Plagiarism is illegal and unacceptable. Invent Idaho takes plagiarism very seriously and it will not be tolerated. Have your young inventor research and document that their idea is original, how they thought of the idea, and how their invention is different than existing inventions. If you are concerned about protecting your idea, contact the US Patent Office and inquire about a Patent or Provisional Patent. Plagiarism is not in the spirit of Invent Idaho where we celebrate creativity and the inventive process, not just the award. Parents, please realize that when you are overly involved with the inventive process, rather than just a guide on the side, you are telling your child you do not have faith in their ability to do the job, and, thus, undermining their self-confidence. Plagiarism may result in the forfeiture of awards and denial of future participation in the Invent Idaho program.
