Synaptic developed a web-based distance learning system for Facing History and Ourselves for their instructor-led workshops.  Up until now, Facing History and Ourselves has presented these workshops in a classroom, face-to-face setting all over the U.S., as well as internationally.  To extend their reach and impact, it was a logical move to use web technology to present these workshops, allowing them to reach more people.  The Online Workshop is a self-service application that consists of a general template containing the workshop instructional materials, resources, and discussion areas.  Facing History instructors use the template as the starting point for their workshop, selecting existing chapters and lessons, adding their own custom materials and writings, inviting attendees and providing them login information.

Computer Sciences Corporation and the Volpe National Transportation Center choose Synaptic to provide application development expertise for a new project for the Federal Aviation Administration.  Using the strengths of IBM/Lotus Domino, Java, and XML this web-based system will provide federal aviation inspectors with a portable repository of reference and regulatory documentation that is tailored to deliver the exact information needed for each of the different FAA inspector job roles.  With the vast volumes of government regulations contained in a multitude of document sources, web sites, and databases, this application mines the content so that it can be accessed immediately and efficiently by inspectors.

Ginsey Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of coordinated bathroom products and accessories, has chosen Synaptic to develop their on-line product catalog.

Ginsey also has the ability to download the entire product catalog to create a CD on demand.

The Sonesta International Hotels public web site is supported by an extranet application that allows each hotel manager in the Sonesta family to update, support, and process all the activity associated with their property.  This allows each property manager the freedom to post last-minute travel specials, area activities and happenings, and special offers.  Direct e-mail to customers alerts them to specials at the destinations they are most interested in visiting.  The travel preferences of frequent customers are stored in the database, so that repeat reservations are always handled with the unique Sonesta care and attention.
