The latest trends, news, and solutions in Higher Education
Colleges and universities need modern, effective advising tools, but many available systems come with enterprise-level price tags. Even the advising add-ons built into major SIS and ERP platforms often require expensive licensing, limited customization, and significant staff effort to maintain.
FlightPath offers a smarter alternative. It delivers a full-featured, enterprise-grade advising system at a fraction of the cost, without sacrificing capability or flexibility.
Academic leaders need a clear, reliable way to understand and demonstrate faculty & staff impact. Teaching, research, service, grants, creative work, and community engagement all contribute to institutional success. Yet when this information is scattered across emails and spreadsheets, it becomes difficult to support accreditation, showcase faculty & staff achievements, or make data-informed decisions.
This is why institutions need Faculty Atlas, the modern faculty activity tracking and reporting system.
Academic advising plays a crucial role in student success, yet many institutions struggle with systems and workflows that make the process harder than it should be. Advisors spend valuable time juggling spreadsheets, tracking down information, and helping students make sense of complex degree paths. FlightPath simplifies that experience.
It is a budget-friendly, modern advising and degree audit platform designed to help colleges and universities make advising more efficient, consistent, and student-centered. Here are five common challenges and how FlightPath helps address them:
We're proud to announce that FlightPath Academics has achieved TX-RAMP Level 2 certification, demonstrating our continued commitment to secure, compliant, and trusted academic advising and student success solutions for higher education.
Similar to other stringent data security certifications like GovRAMP/StateRAMP and FedRAMP, the TX-RAMP Level 2 certification is a crucial part of the vendor approval process for Texas institutions. Managed by the Texas Department of Information Resources, it establishes a standardized framework for assessing and monitoring the security of cloud-based products used by state agencies and public colleges and universities.
It's fairly common for universities and community colleges to lean on whatever advising/degree-planning add-on is available for their SIS/ERP. But as many advising teams have discovered, those add-on modules often don’t meet the real-world needs of advisors or students, fit with campus policies and curricula, and will usually cost an arm and a leg.
That’s where FlightPath Academics comes in. Our academic advising and student success platform, FlightPath, is designed to help advisors and students navigate the path to graduation more easily and effectively. Let’s take a closer look at what makes FlightPath the better choice, and why it might be time for your school to make the switch.
