Our Work

Protected: SHEEO Membership Report

The Membership Report provides the SHEEO membership and the higher education policy community with a view of various member characteristics, including agency-level data, agency senior leadership demographics, and SHEEO-specific data. Along with the Membership Report, this page hosts Agency Profiles, a downloadable data file, and Medium posts highlighting SHEEO agencies and other topics touched on in the Membership Report. The Agency Profiles highlight each SHEEO agency along with various data points from the Membership Survey. We hope these products are used to create equity-minded work environments that affirm, professionally develop, and support staff members of color. Finally, we hope these data are used to further research SHEEO agencies and SHEEOs.
