History
The National Academy of Governance was established by a decision of the 7th National People's Congress in March 1988 and officially opened on 21 September 1994.[6] It was an institution responsible for training high- and middle-level national civil servants, high-level managers and policy research personnel, providing government management policy advice, and conducting theoretical research in the fields of public administration.[7][8][9]
The academy was merged into the Central Party School in March 2018 as part of the deepening the reform of the Party and state institutions.[10] The name "National Academy of Governance" is retained by the Central Party School as a secondary name under a one institution with two names arrangement.[11]
