Simple to learn
Powerful software shouldn’t require a steep learning curve
Academic advising software needs to be powerful without becoming difficult for students and advisors to understand.
FlightPath is designed to be intuitive from the start. We provide training and support, but most users don’t need an extensive learning curve before they can begin using the system.
When the software just makes sense, everyone gets up to speed faster.
- Clear, approachable interface
- Easy for students and advisors to learn
- Training and support when you need it
Built around your institution
Configuration is good. Customization is better.
Every institution has its own academic programs, advising processes, workflows, and requirements.
FlightPath can handle complex curricula and adapt to the way your institution works. Customization is part of our approach. When an institution needs functionality that isn’t already part of FlightPath, we can develop it as part of our ongoing relationship.
Your institution shouldn’t have to change the way it works just to fit the software.
- Flexible academic requirements
- Custom programming when you need it
- Adaptable to your institution’s workflows
- Direct access to the FlightPath team
More ways to support students
Academic advising isn’t limited to traditional degree requirements
Students don’t always follow a traditional path through higher education. FlightPath can support the full range of credentials, requirements, and academic pathways your institution offers.
Co-curricular requirements and microcredentials can be incorporated alongside traditional degree requirements. Prospective transfer students can also explore how their existing coursework applies toward a degree at your institution before they enroll.
Your advising software should adapt to the way your institution supports students.
- Co-curricular requirements & microcredentials
- Transfer student degree planning
- Portal and mobile app integration
