Action Taken
The Ecole Nationale d'Administration (ENA) was established in 1945 to improve the recruitment and training of the higher French Civil Service. There is an annual intake of about 130 students, and entry is highly competitive. Graduates must hold a good university degree and, in practice, most applicants have studied at the Institute des Sciences Politiques (the equivalent to our LSE). Furthermore applicants from the Civil Service must be under 30 and have five years seniority. Former students of the ENA are to be found in key positions throughout French society.
