IPAC Regional Groups 

IPAC's 18 regional groups are the foundation of our networking activities and provide many opportunities for learning and sharing. Collectively, our regional groups sponsor more than 150 events a year. These include conferences, seminars and breakfast/lunch events all focused on current issues in public policy and management.

WE PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES
IPAC to me means hanging out with public servants who really care about the future of our country. Government workplaces can sometimes be quite hierarchical, but at IPAC gatherings, that hierarchy is flattened for everyone from junior analysts to deputy ministers. It is this community of great people that keeps me renewing my IPAC membership each year.
