Frequently asked questions

How do I track my students' progress as a flight instructor?

Create a CFI account, link your students, and open each student's flight record. You can see their totals by category and review the logs and endorsements you have added.

Can I assign written test practice to my students?

Yes. CFIs can build custom practice tests from the FAA practice questions and their own questions, then assign them to linked students.

Do my students need their own accounts?

Yes. Each student keeps their own FlightStride account and logbook, and links to you as their instructor so you can follow their progress.
