They include government employees, academics and scholars, researchers, development and non-government organization workers, professionals, and students of public administration. 

​

It hopes to advance the “praxis” – study and practice – of public administration and public service in the country through its core programs and services to improve the competencies, professional growth, and development, networking and partnership building, shaping the countries public administration research agenda, and policy advocacy.

​

Society Affiliation

​

The Society provides an opportunity to build a strong professional network with other social scientists, policymakers, and school administrators involved in education and training in public administration through its affiliation with other professional organizations like the Association of Schools of Public Administration in the Philippines (ASPAP Inc.), and the Philippine Social Science Council (PSSC). 

​

In line with its program for professional development, PSPA sponsors conferences, lectures (classroom-based and/or online-based), seminars, and public forums to improve the professional skills of its members and to foster professionalism in the conduct of governmental and related public service activities.
