Comprehensive Captioning Coverage for Higher Education

CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) delivers verbatim, real-time transcription of spoken classroom content directly to a student's device or a shared display. Jessica provides this service both on-site and remotely, seamlessly integrating into the live lecture environment with zero disruption. Accuracy rates are high, pace-matched to rapid academic discourse, and every session produces a full verbatim transcript that students may keep for study.

• On-site and remote delivery options
• Verbatim real-time transcription to student devices or shared screen
• Full session transcripts provided after each class
• Experience with STEM, humanities, law, medical, and graduate-level courses
• Compatible with university LMS and accessibility platforms

Jessica provides fully remote CART captioning for online classes, virtual office hours, webinars, and synchronous digital learning sessions. She integrates directly into Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Webex, and other platforms — no special software installation required from the institution. Technology reliability is paramount: redundant internet connections, backup protocols, and near-zero latency delivery ensure students never miss a word.

• Compatible with Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, and Webex
• No additional software required by the institution
• Real-time captions streamed directly to student devices
• Redundant connectivity for uninterrupted sessions
• Session transcripts delivered within 24 hours

Hybrid course formats — where some students attend in person while others join remotely — present unique accessibility challenges. Jessica's hybrid captioning service ensures that every student, regardless of how they're attending, receives identical real-time caption quality. She monitors both the physical room audio and the digital feed simultaneously, ensuring no spoken content is missed whether it originates in-room or online.

Setup is straightforward and compatible with any hybrid classroom technology already in use at your institution — no costly infrastructure upgrades required. Jessica works with disability services offices ahead of each semester to map sessions, confirm formats, and prevent scheduling gaps.

Jessica brings the same professional-grade accuracy to large-scale campus events as she does to individual classrooms. From department conferences and symposia to all-campus commencement ceremonies, she provides live captioning that keeps every attendee — students, faculty, families, and guests — fully included. For high-stakes events where a mistake is not an option, her preparation process includes advance review of speaker names, terminology, and program materials.

For commencement and special ceremonies, Jessica coordinates directly with the event team and A/V staff to ensure seamless integration with display systems, PA feeds, and streaming setups. Caption output can feed a dedicated display screen, the venue's main projection, or a remote streaming platform simultaneously.

• Commencement and graduation ceremonies
• Academic conferences and symposia
• Guest lectures and public forums
• Award ceremonies and campus-wide events
• Streaming and hybrid event support

Faculty Meetings & Staff Sessions

Accessibility doesn't end at the classroom door. Jessica provides live captioning for faculty meetings, departmental gatherings, staff training sessions, and committee hearings — ensuring that deaf and hard-of-hearing faculty, staff, and guests are full participants in institutional life, not observers. Scheduling is flexible and can accommodate both standing recurring meetings and one-off sessions with short notice.

ADA & Accessibility Support

Beyond providing captioning, Jessica serves as a knowledgeable resource for disability services offices navigating ADA compliance and accessibility planning. She can assist in identifying gaps in captioning coverage, advising on best practices for communication access, and helping institutions build sustainable, scalable captioning programs that meet Title II and Section 504 requirements. This positions Jessica as a long-term campus partner — not just a session-by-session vendor.
