Why Societies and Associations Should Caption with 3Play Media

  

Many Societies and Associations offer accessible video resources with closed captions and transcripts, and yours can too!

The path towards accessibility for Societies and Associations starts with understanding the many benefits that captions can bring to your organization and to the people that it serves. So, what are some of the benefits that captions provide?

 

How Can Captions Benefit Societies and Associations?

 

Benefits of Captioning: Increase Accessibility, Improve Learning Experience, Add Value to Gated Resources, Reach a Global Audience, Stay ADA Compliant, Increase Organic Website Traffic

  • Captions make video resources such as online courses, webinars, and recorded conferences accessible to more people
  • Captions ensure that your organization is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act
  • Captions enhance the learning experience for the end user overall when coupled with educational video resources
  • Captions help to engage your audience and reinforce the message of the video itself
  • Captions assist non-native English speakers to absorb information from video resources more efficiently
  • Captions increase SEO, drive more organic traffic to your website, and build brand awareness

 

 

Now that you see the value of captions, it's time to determine the best captioning solution for your organization. When deciding on a captioning vendor, it's helpful to have an understanding of the common captioning needs of Societies and Associations
