I am pleased to be able to offer paid work to 20 student interns to work in ISG as captioners.
Alongside AI tools which generate automated captions and transcripts, the human captioners ensure that the standard of quality is good enough to support students with hearing difficulties. This semester (to 5th March) they have corrected over 100 pieces of media. The time spent captioning varies significantly based on the subject, but as the captioners gain skill and confidence the turnaround time and quality increases. 50-minute long lectures are usually turned around within 4 days.
