Hands-on practice

What you actually do during the course

Every module is built around real working steps on sample recordings. You type, time, label and check captions yourself, then compare your result with an instructor's notes and fix whatever the review turns up.

What you actually do during the course

Work on sample recordings

Each module uses interviews, talks and event videos with different audio quality and speaking styles, so you practise on the kind of material you will meet in a real caption job.

Use a review checklist

A simple checklist covers errors, reading speed and consistency. You apply it to your own captions and learn to spot problems before a file goes out to anyone.

Learn from three instructors

Marcus, Priya and Elena each teach the modules they know best, from transcription and timing to speaker labels, sound notes and file delivery.

Study at a steady pace

The modules follow the order of a real caption job, so each one builds on the last, and you can return to any earlier step whenever a recording needs it.

Curriculum

Six modules that follow a real captioning job

The course starts with turning speech into accurate text and ends with exporting files viewers can use. In between you learn timing, speaker identification, sound descriptions and quality review. Each module has its own practice recordings and a clear outcome you can check yourself.

  1. Transcription Foundations

    Turn spoken interviews and talks into clean, accurate text, including handling terminology and unclear audio.

  2. Timing and Subtitle Sync

    Learn to break text into readable caption lines and set start and end times that match the speech.

  3. Speaker Identification

    Practise labelling speakers and handling overlapping voices in panel discussions and event recordings.

  4. Sound Descriptions

    Decide which non-speech sounds matter and write short, useful descriptions for viewers who cannot hear them.

  5. Quality Review

    Check captions for errors, reading speed and consistency using a simple review checklist on sample videos.

  6. File Formats and Delivery

    Export captions as SRT and VTT files or embed them in the video, and learn when each option fits.

The full module guide on the Curriculum page lists what each one covers and what to prepare. Contact us if you are unsure where your current skills fit.

How we teach

The principles behind every lesson we plan

Captions only help when viewers can read them comfortably and trust what they read. These principles shape how we plan lessons in Tulsa, give feedback and judge finished work. They matter most in small decisions: where a line breaks, who is speaking, and which sound is worth describing to a viewer.

  1. Clarity

    Clarity means captions a viewer can read without effort. In lessons you break text into short, balanced lines, keep reading speed comfortable and cut anything that distracts from the speech. Instructors show side-by-side versions of the same passage, so you can see exactly why one version is easier to follow than the other.

  2. Accuracy

    Accuracy starts with listening closely and checking terminology. You learn to handle names, jargon and unclear audio, and to mark clearly what you cannot confirm. The review checklist then gives you a repeatable routine for catching mistakes in spelling, timing and speaker labels before anyone else sees the captions.

  3. Access

    Access is the reason captions exist at all. You practise deciding which sounds matter to viewers who cannot hear them and how to describe them in a few useful words. Speaker labels and file formats are taught with the same aim: captions that work for as many viewers as possible, on the player they use.
