The NGA CENTER FOR BEST PRACTICES is the only research and development firm that directly serves the nation’s governors. Areas of expertise inside the division grow aptitude in five key public policy areas being shaped in the states.
The mission of NGA GOVERNMENT RELATIONS is to ensure governors’ views are represented in the shaping of federal policy. The collective policy positions, reflecting governors’ principles on priority issues, guide the association’s efforts.
NGA GLOBAL creates opportunities for governors to convene and collaborate with their counterparts across the globe, including heads of state, thought leaders, and foreign executives. NGA partners with an array of globally recognized organizations.
The increasing pace and scope of technological innovation demands improved understanding of how technology will impact the ways in which citizens, business and governments interact. The NGA FUTURE program aims to provide governors with insights.
NGA PARTNERS offers a trusted, nonpartisan environment for high-level exchanges of ideas and viewpoints. NGA is a positive forum for CEOs and senior executives to elevate their thought leader profile, facilitating discussion around the most pressing topics.
NGA provides leadership assistance targeting the complete life-cycle of an administration—from election day through the final year in office. NGA Consulting offers services, resources and training, as well as a one-of-a-kind spouses’ program.
