Heartland Database Access:

Are you taking a Dual Credit class? Don't forget your Heartland ID gives you access to the Heartland databases as well as the I-share catalog! It's a good opportunity for you to become familiar with their databases, subject guides and the wealth of resources at the college level! If you have questions about how to use them just stop by the IMC and ask Mrs. H how!

 
If you forgot your Heartland dual credit login information you can contact Heartland IT at helpdesk@heartland.edu or the Admissions office at 268-8010.
