In a Nutshell
Oregon State University was using a small team of human transcribers to meet the needs of its students who required transcripts and note taking assistance in order to meet ADA requirements. When COVID-19 forced the campus to function entirely online, the need for transcripts and captions – both live and in post-production – drastically increased. The university’s Deaf and Hard of Hearing Access Services partnered with Verbit to automate these services and provide more accessible materials to all students.
