The Institute of Public Administration Australia (IPAA) is a nonpartisan and apolitical member-based organisation which provides public sector thought leadership and works to strengthen the capacity of public servants through events, training and other activities.
IPAA was established in South Australia in 1927 and since 1984 has had divisions in each state and territory. Initially associated with the Royal Institute of Public Administration based in London, IPAA became an independent national organisation on 1 January 1980.
IPAA's strategic direction is set by a National Council — with an executive and representatives from each IPAA division — supported by a national office.
As part of its commitment to the study and practice of public administration, public management and policy making in Australia, IPAA has produced the quarterly journal Australian Journal of Public Administration since 1937.
IPAA delivers an annual national conference. At the dinner preceding the conference, IPAA recognises practitioners and researchers who have made an outstanding contribution to the practice and study of public administration with the Sam Richardson Award. Members who have made outstanding contributions to public service and to IPAA are also announced as National Fellows.
IPAA membership is open to public servants, academics and those with an interest in public administration.
IPAA divisions are the engine room for local events, professional development opportunities and other member activities.
