The Institute of Public Administration (IPA) is Ireland’s only public service development agency. The IPA focuses exclusively on public sector development.
The IPA was founded in 1957. It is the main provider of education, training and development services for the public service in Ireland, as well as research services. The IPA offers a wide range of postgraduate programmes in public management.
The Whitaker School of Government and Management at the IPA offers more than 30 nationally accredited qualifications. These sit at levels nine and ten on the National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ). Named after T.K. Whitaker, one of Ireland’s most eminent public servants, the School provides third-level programmes in, among other areas, public management, local government, healthcare management, HRM, finance, and business studies.
The IPA is a recognised college of University College Dublin (UCD). From 2012, any student entering an accredited IPA Programme has graduated with a UCD award. The IPA and UCD are part of the wider National University of Ireland (NUI) network.
