IAPCO’s Training Academy (TA) comprises meeting professionals from IAPCO member companies and industry partners from around the globe. They are hand-selected to be part of the Academy for the expertise each of them bring to specific subject matters as well as for the energy, enthusiasm and willingness to share their knowledge with others.

The IAPCO International Educational Programme is administered by the Training Academy under the auspices of the IAPCO Council. The Educational Programme provides specialist training, not only for professional congress organisers and meeting planners, but to all sectors of the meetings industry.
