This was an opportunity for participants to test ideas from the workshops with a supportsystem in place and guidance as needed, all in a safe way. Coaching cut across disciplines inengineering and course levels and was successful in helping many faculty implement workshopideas [2].In 2020 nine in-person workshops were planned. The plans shifted swiftly to a remote formatdue to COVID-19 and raised several research questions aligned with this transition: 1. Does the COVID shift create long-term benefits for faculty development structures? 2. Did EM assist the faculty facilitators with the COVID

COVID-19 was here for the long run, but the summeralso gave faculty an opportunity to develop expertise in on-line delivery and to plan the contentand execution of their classes. Classes in the fall at the U of A were to be taught either remotely(neither students or instructor in the classroom), in-person (instructor and students in theclassroom with significantly reduced enrollment) or in a hybrid mode (some students in-person,some students remote, instructor in-person), with a heavy emphasis on a safe workingenvironment for all. This led to most classes being taught remotely or in a hybrid mode. Butwhat about labs? © American Society for Engineering Education, 2021 2021 ASEE Midwest

In fact, four TPP students indicated that they had matriculated toWPI because of the TPP. With these data, we see that the students who end up doing the TPP arequite committed to teaching.
