Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides techniques for scheduling and monitoring of event progress. A syllabus indicating flight training requirements for pilots and flight information for a plurality of scheduled flights is accessed. A first set of flight alternatives, from the plurality of scheduled flights, is identified, for a first trainee, based on the syllabus. The first trainee is assigned to a first subset of one or more flights, from the first set of flight alternatives, based on defined scheduling criteria. One or more instructors are assigned to each flight of the first subset of one or more flights.
