If you want to promote Safety C.O.D.E. you must display both the Safety C.O.D.E. logo and the Cognitive Institute logos on the same document, artwork or promotional item. The preferred placement of these logos is top right and bottom right of the document. Alternatively, the Safety C.O.D.E. logo can also appear as a heading. To promote any other programme or involvement with Cognitive Institute, use the Cognitive Institute logo.
Do I always have to use TM when I mention Safety C.O.D.E. or Speaking Up for Safety in text?
No. Use TM once, the first time the term is used either in text or as a logo. For subsequent references you do not need to use the TM.
How do I acknowledge Cognitive Institute’s work in a presentation or document I am working on?

In these circumstances please consult Cognitive Institute in advance of the logo’s use.
