FlightPath is an open-source, web-based enterprise software application for academic support, academic advising, and degree audit for institutions of higher education. Originally created at a large public university in Louisiana, The University of Louisiana at Monroe, the software package was released as open-source software on March 13, 2013.[2][3][4]
Mobile-friendly, Flightpath provides comprehensive and persistent academic advising to support student success in institutions of higher learning; all history of academic support can be accessed through a browser or customized cell phone application. Students receive documented guidance to take courses that progress towards graduation. Advisors and support staff can monitor progress and provide comments for advisees and campus staff. Students and advisors may also try out how accumulated course credits can lead to completion of other degrees using the "What If?" tool. Through several accreditation cycles, Flightpath has been used continuously to academically advise tens of thousands of university students since 2006. It is actively maintained and is currently at version 6.
