Comms access knowledge creates a ripple that leads to a shift in mindset. People approach things differently. #AccessibilityByDesign is the standard. Equal & effective access to comms is a priority. Captioning must be ACCURATE to be ACCESSIBLE. #Inclusion#Academia#EventPlanning
#A11y by Design, a welcoming, accessible environment w/out forcing disability disclosure. Access to comms expands the circle that delivers your content & the circle that receives it. Captioning must be ACCURATE to be ACCESSIBLE. #StenographicCaptioners#Academia#EventPlanning
@joefryer No one should be denied access to communications, especially loved ones. Sad to see the responses. Accurate captions benefit MANY communities (not just DHoH) & improve reading skills & support ELL/ESL. Those people were actively denying access.

Every platform should give consumers the choice to integrate highly skilled human captioners instead of defaulting to uncertified automated captions with poor accuracy. @GCaptioning has made it easy for you to answer the FCCβs request for comments on #a11y in virtual platforms.
When event planners keep QUALITY access in mind from the beginning, they are planning an EXPERIENCE that can be SHARED by ALL.
#Stenographers are crucial for EQUAL & EFFECTIVE access to content. Captioning must be ACCURATE to be ACCESSIBLE.
