Colleague to Colleague (C2C) originated as the staff development sub-group of the Heartland Alliance, but subsequently has become a professional association of faculty, staff and administrators from the Greater Midwest. Our goal is to share technology expertise, resources, and training with a special emphasis on distance education and instructional technology, for colleagues in K12, higher education, government, non-profits, and education-related commercial sectors. C2C cosponsors the Summer Institute on Distance Learning and Instructional Technology (SIDLIT–pronounced “sidelight”), in coordination with a local institution of higher education. Colleague 2 Colleague (C2C), a chartered professional organization, is designed to facilitate the exchange of information and expertise between faculty and staff involved or interested in instructional technology, online instruction, and distance education. The organization’s primary focus is on staff development and collaboration between the community colleges, technical colleges, and universities in the Kansas and Missouri bi-state region.
