Staffing shortages emerged as one of the greatest challenges for community college distance learning programs during the pandemic, according to an annual survey by the Instructional Technology Council (ITC). Nearly half (48%) of respondents to the 2022 ITC Annual National Distance Learning Survey indicated they had no dedicated staff (16%) or only 1-2 dedicated staff (32%) to deal with the challenges of moving all instruction online. The survey results also confirmed that distance learning programs didn’t receive any increased staffing to sustain the nearly two years of mostly online instruction during the pandemic.
