Learn about what needs to be captioned:
Houston Community College is committed to the fundamental academic principle of accessibility by providing equal access to all of HCC’s programs & services. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, 1990) & the ADA Amendments Act (2008), protects persons with disabilities from discrimination through barriers to communication. Communications with individuals with disabilities must be as effective as communication with others. The use of captioned media is one method in breaking down these barriers to equal communication access. Media in this context refers to audio and video.
There are two main categories of media:
Media resources are differentiated by the following categories:
All media resources that fall under the 2nd category should be captioned.
