Capstone Supports

SYNC is pleased to provide practical coaching and technical assistance as you develop your SYNC Capstone Project.  We can help your team:

  • Clarify your focus;
  • Define your project aims;
  • Identify best-practice strategies;
  • Define key performance indicators;
  • Design analytics;
  • Produce analytics (in some cases);
  • Think through challenges;
  • Capture lessons learned; and
  • Prepare for the March Teachback Session.

Our ‘point personnel’ for Capstone support are Steve Horan, Caitlin Feller, and Terry Cyr from Community Health Solutions.  Steve, Caitlin and Terry have coached dozens of teams through the project development process, and they are experienced at helping teams focus their work and solve technical challenges.  They will also provide liaison to the rest of the SYNC faculty and staff who are happy to help our SYNC teams with insight and advice.
