One of the biggest successes of the University of Queensland (UQ) Business School partnership has been the development of the Inspiring Executive Leadership Program, in association with the Queensland Public Service Commission. The new program was formed in consultation with the Public Service Commission’s Leadership Advisory Team and helps foster and develop the public sector leaders of tomorrow.
PS News is the weekly online newspaper for the Queensland Public Service, covering news, events, information and activities of interest and value to the PS.
An important component of the national Public Service News Network, PS News Queensland is independent of Government, public service or union influence and unashamedly supports the PS viewpoint in issues and debates affecting PS life.
PS News is compiled by award winning journalists and contributors with years of experience in public service matters and has enjoyed strong growth since its modest beginnings reporting Commonwealth public service news in 2005. PS News Queensland, is proud to play a partnership role with the Institute of Public Administration Australia in Queensland and to support its very worthwhile and important endeavours.
Mercer, the global leader for trusted HR and related financial advice, products and services first worked with IPAA Queensland in 2009 when they partnered on a number of iQ Events. The Institute has now formed a formal partnership with Mercer that not only includes support of iQ Events but also the development and delivery of a new iQ Training product, a HR based Masterclass for public sector human resource professionals. Both organisations are looking forward to building on this relationship.
Queenslanders Credit Union Ltd (Queenslanders) is the state’s original public service employees’ credit union. They've been looking after the banking needs of thousands of Queenslanders for over 45 years - and here's the best part - they're not a bank!
With all profits going back to members, Queenslanders were seen as a perfect match for IPAA Queensland members. As a result, Queenslanders and IPAA Queensland joined forces in 2009 to develop a package of specially priced financial products - available exclusively to IPAA Queensland members.
The package includes discounts on personal overdraft facilities, bonus interest on term deposits, access to an extensive range of fee-free banking options and savings on general insurance policies.
Accor came on board as IPAA Queensland's Accomodation Partners in 2010, offering IPAA Queensland members a range of discounted travle options and upgrades.
IPAA Queensland Away on Business is a program that allows IPAA Queensland members to book discounted accommodation at more than 1,600 participating hotels worldwide. The program provides members with a unique IPAA Queensland booking code and booking page where they can book and get a 10% discount on the Best Unrestricted Rate of the Day*, securing a better deal than any other discount booking site on the internet.
A|Club is the new Accor hotel loyalty program that offers advantages and rewards at more than 2000 hotels worldwide. With A|Club, earn points for every dollar spent, and enjoy exclusive rewards throughout a wide selection of Accor hotels, including Sofitel, Pullman, MGallery, Novotel, Suite Novotel, Mercure, Adagio, ibis, all seasons and Thalassa sea & spa.
