3.8.2. Flight Plans

Designed to be used by the course delivery team, our “Flight Plans” are the detailed instructions for running the course. We use them every time we run the course and consider them to be the most important part of the material we are making available.

We are also constantly improving them based on feedback from the course delivery teams. You’ll see that the flight plans are versioned. You can find the change log at the bottom of this page.

Don’t feel you need to update to every version. Check the change notes to see if you want to update your version. Most of the time the changes are small and we hope helpful.

If you’re delivering a course for the Foundation you’ll be using the latest versions of the flight plans.

Using the Flight Plans

We distribute the flight plans as PDFs. If you want to edit them you can just open the PDF in Word.

The Foundation has historically used Word files stored on Sharepoint, which allows the delivery team to all work off the same copy. We are phasing this out and moving to the Delivery Console.

Getting the Flight Plans

To get the latest flight plans, go to https://bettercourses.org/flightplans and choose the version, page size, and style you want. You’ll then get an email with the PDFs attached, customised especially for you.

Historic Flight Plans

As of September 2024, we’re no longer updating the change log here.
