The Board of Trustees sets broad strategic direction, long- term objectives and priorities for the organization. The Board is also responsible for ensuring that CMCC management fulfils its responsibilities with respect to the effective and efficient operation of the organization.

During 1994-95, the Board met five times. One of these meetings was via conference call; another was held in St. John's, Newfoundland. As for the various Board committees, seventeen meetings were held, including seven through conference calls.

The Board took advantage of its meeting in St. John's on June 13 and 14, 1994 to re-affirm its association with Newfoundland and Labrador. This association has translated into numerous projects involving the Canadian Museum of Civilization and public institutions such as the Newfoundland Museum and Memorial University. An agreement has also been set up between the Canadian War Museum and the Newfoundland Museum for exchanges of information, travelling exhibitions and curatorial knowledge, to help in the preservation and restoration of the province's military history. In addition to its regular meeting, the Board paid a special visit to historic Cupids, Newfoundland and met with the Local Heritage Society.
