The Governance Forum is managed by the Institute of Public Administration to provide a network, events and advice on governance issues from a public interest perspective. The member organisations of the Forum include State bodies, government departments and not for profit bodies.
Each member of the organisation receives a range of services including invitations for board members and executives to a series of briefing events and conferences, customized in-house training and consultancy, advice from governance specialists and access to the Governance Forum web site.

Supporting Good Governance: An IPA service for boards and top management. We provide a support service to boards and top management of state agencies. There is an increased focus on the performance of boards. Recent legislative provisions, including freedom of information and ethics provisions, have made fresh demands on boards and top management. The Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies, issued by the Department of Finance, sets out principles for the conduct of boards.
In this context we offer board and top management briefings focusing on:
The Responsibilities of Directors/Senior Managers
The Role of Non-Executive Directors
Risk Management Systems
Audit Guidance for Managers/Directors
Principles of Corporate and Financial Governance
