The highest national award bestowed by the Institute is the IPAA Fellow. The award recognises an individual’s outstanding contribution to the study or practice of public administration. Recipients of this prestigious award are entitled to use the postnominal letters ‘FIPAA’.
Each IPAA division nominates prospective National Fellows to the National Council each year. The National Council reviews applications against criteria, including the nominee’s contribution to the work of IPAA.
All National Fellows from the ACT are honourary life members of the Division.
