SHEEO operates as the national association representing the chief executives who oversee state-level boards that govern, coordinate, and shape higher education policy. Established in 1954 and based in Washington, DC, the organization supports its members by promoting policy leadership at the state level, serving as a link to federal authorities, and facilitating learning from peer institutions. It also coordinates multistate initiatives and provides information and analysis on education and public policy issues.

The organization's work is aimed at state higher education systems and policymakers pursuing broader access to postsecondary education and stronger alignment with a modern economy. In 2026, SHEEO released its State Higher Education Policy Issues ranking to identify priority challenges facing public postsecondary systems.
