Abstract
Extended Education at the University of Manitoba offers 12-month, full-time, face-to-face intensive programming to internationally educated professionals. This programming consists of two credentials and academic language support completed over 10 months, followed by an industry experience. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Extended Education pivoted quickly to develop a strategy to move courses offered to international students from a traditional face-to-face situation to a remote-learning delivery format. In order to ensure a successful transition, the developed strategy involved providing administrative and academic support to international students and part-time contract instructors. This session will highlight some of the initiatives implemented by Extended Education at the University of Manitoba to support its international students and part-time contract instructors through the transition, and discuss their effectiveness and correlation to student success. The session will also provide insights into factors to consider when planning for future programming opportunities, such as a hybrid model of learning.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
