About Us
The Western Australia Institute of Public Administration Australia established in 1954, is a not-for-profit professional association which enables those with an interest in public administration and public sector reform to exchange ideas on trends, practices and innovations. Our purpose is to advance excellence in the public sector.

At the Institute we believe that members of the public service make a difference, which is why we are committed to helping you succeed.
We foster positivity and creativity by offering opportunities for sharing and learning through our wide range of events, training courses and networking opportunities.
We are not a union, so we don’t comment on public sector industrial relations issues or other political situations. Rather, we strive to make the general public and wider community aware of current and potential future issues to promote ethical governance and overall excellence in the sector.
As a strong membership organisation, we welcome new members from both the public and private sectors who are passionate about the professionalism and future of WA.
