NASPAA, the Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration, operates in the government administration sector with the aim of advancing public service education. Based in Washington, DC, it supports a global network of more than 280 member schools and coordinates accreditation, conferences, a teaching and learning journal, a data center for prospective students, and an honor society for graduates, all focused on ensuring quality education and training for public service. The organization connects public sector and nonprofit employers with its more than 10,000 annual MPA and MPP graduates, helping to align educational outcomes with workforce needs across local, national, and international contexts. Established in 1970, NASPAA underwent a name change in 2012 to reflect its global membership, and its activities include partnerships, policy-aligned DEIJA initiatives, and events such as conferences. A recent development includes collaboration with Northern Arizona University to improve conference accessibility by providing daycare services for attendees. NASPAA is a member-driven entity that positions itself as a global standard-setter in public policy and administration education.
