Foreign Service Academy is a training academy for foreign service officers of the Bangladesh Civil Service under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.




History


In the 1980s, the foreign service officers were trained at the Foreign Affairs Training Institute which was later merged with the Bangladesh Civil Service Administration Academy. Foreign Service Academy was established in 1996 by the government of Bangladesh to train foreign service officers after a need for specialized training was recognized. The academy started working from 1 January 1997. On 19 April 2019, the Academy opened a Genocide corner in memory of the Bangladesh genocide during the Bangladesh Liberation war.

The academy was decided to be located at a historic colonial era mansion known as the President's House. In the 1960s, Queen Elizabeth II stayed at the mansion. After the independence of Bangladesh, the mansion was called the Ganabhaban ("People's House") and made the office of then-Prime Minister Sheikh Mujib but after the building of a new Ganabhaban in Sher-e-Bangla Nagar it was converted to a state guest house named Sugandha. In 1996, it became the official headquarters of the Foreign Service Academy.
