As part of Humber College’s commitment to creating a fully inclusive learning environment, the Accessible Media Department now offers closed captioning services.
Closed captions present spoken language and other relevant audio information in a video as text on screen. They are an essential tool for students who are deaf, hard-of-hearing, new English speakers, or have different learning abilities. As well as being part of Humber’s accessibility agenda, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) requires that closed captions be available upon request.
We're here to help
The Accessible Media Department is here to help faculty provide the most inclusive classroom experience possible. Our team of closed captioning technologists, along with our staff of work-study students, can create professional closed captions for videos that will be shown in-class or online.
