The Association of Nigerian University Professional Administrators henceforth referred to as ANUPA is the mouth piece of Professional Administrators in Nigerian University. It is a forum for mutual education and cross fertilization of ideas on universities. ANUPA , a brainchild of ARNU is charged with the training of young Administrators in Nigerian Universities. Thus as a body, ANUPA firmly believes that the strength of every organization, and indeed, every University is in her people, teaching and non- teaching.

Consequently, the thrust of its activities remains ensuring that a variety of trainings is made available in order for staff to be productive in their different roles within the Universities and develop as individuals. Staff development and training should therefore, form a fundamental part of our Universities. ANUPA aims to promote and advance professional administrative knowledge and best practices in Nigerian Universities.
