Diplomatic Academy of Ukraine, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine

The Diplomatic Academy at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine has been functioning for over 20 years. However, nowadays there is an urgent need to overhaul its mission, functions and the very nature of the educational process. The Hennadii Udovenko Diplomatic Academy of Ukraine is no longer a ordinary classical educational establishment. It now performs its direct functions – professional development of diplomats.The Academy trainees are diplomatic and civil servants from the MFA, the Presidential Administration of Ukraine, the Secretariat of the Cabinet of Ministers, the Verkhovna Rada Secretariat, other Ministries and Government Agencies.We are now launching a modern system of professional development training, teaching and assessing foreign languages competence, specialized training programs and tailor-made courses for those who have decided to pursue a diplomatic career, who have been posted abroad, who have come back from a foreign mission, who are seeking to take up a high post in the MFA head office or a diplomatic mission. The doors of the Academy are open to those who are interested in foreign policy and care about the future of Ukraine, its security and development. Our values are expressed in the motto once formulated by Hennadii Udovenko as 3P’s – Professionalism, Probity, Patriotism.
