NameCoach

NameCoach is a name pronunciation tool and is a featured integration within the directory. A person’s name is central to their identity, and pronouncing their name correctly is instrumental in showing respect to them along with knowing them better.

NameCoach aids in bridging the gap between those who may come from different communities, and may be unfamiliar with the pronunciation of each other’s name, by allowing users to share a URL that links to an audio recording of how their name is pronounced.

Our integration with NameCoach now makes it even easier to share the correct pronunciation of one’s name by including a unique field that lets you share your NameCoach, NameBadge URL directly in your directoryprofile. When this field is populated, a speaker icon is displayed next your name and when clicks open a new window/tab featuring your NameBadge.

Process to Add NameCoach to Your Directory Listing:

1. Review this information about how to creating a NameCoach account.
2. When done, send the url of your NameCoach to cnr_comm@help.ncsu.edu and we will add to your profile.
