Annual Program Workshops

Each year, IPAC hosts a series of workshops for our international program participants. Approximately 100 delegates, including Cabinet Secretaries, Deputy Ministers, Principal and Permanent Secretaries, and Assistant Deputy Ministers participate, representing numerous countries from around the world and provinces across Canada. These annual forums allow participants to meet face-to-face to share their experiences, public sector successes, best practices, and lessons learned in relation to topics of common interest.
