Request Captions for Uploaded Media

Captioning can be requested on the TechConnect Cloud website, as well as within your Canvas shell. The instructions are below for both.

To request captioning through TechConnect Cloud, you will first need to upload the video file (upload video instructions). You cannot request captions for Media that has been linked from YouTube.

In addition, you must agree to the below guidelines.

Media Requests for Closed Captions must:

• Be instructor-created for student use only.
• Have clear audio.
• Be in English.
• Not be mostly music.
• Not be submitted for practice or experimentation.

Failure to comply will result in current and future delays and/or rejection of submissions.

Appropriate submissions will be processed, and captions will be automatically added to your media. You will be notified on your account page.

Captioning services are available while funding exists.
