NameCoach software for commencement

We previously announced new software called NameCoach that can aid with name pronunciation. At the beginning of April, NameCoach will be available to use for commencement. The project team who is implementing NameCoach has been in contact with commencement coordinators across the system campuses and will be granting access and providing training in March.

Using NameCoach for commencement will give readers the opportunity to practice names before an event. It helps to simplify the process of gathering name pronunciations and phonetic spellings and has been positively reviewed as an easy-to-use tool. View NameCoach’s commencement information. For questions about NameCoach or access for commencement events, contact Nate Peterson (pete2787@umn.edu).

The project team is currently working with Canvas to implement NameCoach in Canvas in the near future. We will share that information as it becomes available.
