One of the most crucial moments of every graduation ceremony is the announcement of each student’s name as they walk across the stage. This is their moment.
And as they share their joy with their families, classmates, and educators, we understand how crucial it is for you, the ceremony coordinator, to know that each and every name will be announced accurately and energetically. It’s your goal to make sure that moment is special for all of your students. That’s why we do what we do.

With our pronunciation tools and voiceover talent, you can finally eliminate the risk that a live reader announcement brings to your ceremony. Proper name pronunciations are collected from your graduates using our Say-It-Right tool and then are recorded by professional voiceover artists using our ProNounce tool. Each graduate name goes through a stringent testing process to ensure that it’s recorded clearly and accurately before your ceremony—eliminating the need for a live reader to take extra time to check name accuracy and pronunciation on stage. Our tools improve the pace of your graduate name announcements, resulting in a smooth, but quick on-stage process that can shorten your ceremony without it feeling rushed.
Leave the microphone pops, fatigued readers, weather interference, sickness and extra effort behind you and take advantage of a proven solution that has created wonderful memories for millions of graduates. Each name will resonate throughout the venue with energy and confidence, regardless of whether the graduate was first in line, or five hundredth.
