In addition to entry-level examiner training materials, the USPTO also has the materials to train patent examiners beyond entry level available to the public. A link can be found here. Those materials cover topics such as writing a persuasive reply to attorney arguments, addressing 112(f) or means-plus-function limitations in an OfficeAction, restriction practice and unity of invention, and rules of practice in ex parte appeals.
