NASPAA is the global standard in public service education.

NASPAA is also the recognized accreditor of master's degree programs in these fields. NASPAA's twofold mission is to promote excellence in education and training for public service and to promote the ideal of public service.

Ethel Hill Williams, University of Nebraska-Omaha, took the gavel as the 2013-14 President of NASPAA, and J. Edward Kellough, University of Georgia, was elected vice president and president-elect.

The four other public affairs faculty elected to NASPAA’s Executive Council this year were: Mohamad Alkadry, Florida International University; Robert Kravchuk, Indiana University; Barbara Liggett, Western Michigan University; and Lan Xue, Tsinghua University.
