The latest trends, news, and solutions in Higher Education
Student retention remains one of the biggest challenges facing colleges and universities. While there is no single solution, proactive advising has emerged as one of the most effective strategies for helping students stay on track and reach graduation.
Rather than waiting for students to ask for help (or until the end of the term during advising season), proactive advising focuses on identifying problems early and intervening before the student falls behind.
Tracking faculty credentials can become complicated as institutions grow. Records may be stored across multiple systems, expiration dates may be tracked manually, and reporting often takes longer than expected when information is needed quickly.

It tracks qualifications, sends alerts for expiring certifications, and generates reports which demonstrate how your faculty are qualified to teach assigned courses. Let's look at some of the headaches commonly faced by institutions of all sizes:
Choosing academic advising software is a significant decision for any college or university. It affects students, advisors, and administrators every day. When it works well, it helps students stay on track and graduate on time. When it does not, it becomes another system people avoid.

Managing degree requirements has become increasingly complex for institutions of all sizes. Between multiple catalog years, evolving curricula, and students pursuing combinations of majors, minors, and concentrations, even straightforward advising scenarios can quickly become difficult to manage.
FlightPath is designed to make this easier. As an enterprise academic advising solution, it gives advisors a clear, accurate view of each student’s path to graduation, without relying on manual tracking or disconnected systems.
