The CSSHE is governed by a Board of Directors which normally meets at least twice a year. The Board consists of five officers and six members-at-large elected at the annual meeting held with the conference each spring. The program chair and the Canadian Journal of Higher Education editor are appointed by the Board of Directors, and serve on it ex-officio.
