Constituent Groups

SHEEO hosts regular virtual meetings of constituent groups among SHEEO agency staff. Convenings of agency leadership from academic affairs, communications, equity and diversity, finance, government relations, and research and data, include guest speakers, professional development, and the opportunity for collaboration and problem-solving with colleagues from other states. Constituent groups often meet in-person one time a year, at the annual SHEEO Higher Education Policy Conference.

If you are a SHEEO agency staff member and wish to be a part of any of the following groups, please reach out to the main contact of the group that best fits your role, noted below.
