Insights, research, tools and other resources: in addition to trusteeship magazine published six times per year for members, agb publishes books, reports, board statements, blogs, survey findings, webinars, videos, podcasts, and other resources. These are contained in the agb knowledge center on agb.org, which serves as a content hub for best practices, expert insights, research reports, tools and toolkits, and other educational materials. Additionally, agb offers new board member orientation for introducing board members to higher education governance, essential board responsibilities, board composition, and boardroom culture, and a board professional certificate program.

Advocacy and public policy: agb works to ensure the views of our members are at the forefront of state and federal policy discussions regarding board governance, institutional leadership, student success, and institutional vitality. We work to improve society's understanding and perception of the value of higher education, and we sponsor a number of other advocacy projects that address pressing issues in higher education.
