If one of your students has booked live captions for one of your classes/lectures you will: 1) need to send some preparation materials to 121 Captions and 2) ensure that the professional captioner has been assigned to type captions in the Zoom meeting. You should have also received a notification from your department that one of your students requires live captions.

  1. Please send preparation materials to bookings@121captions.com as soon as you are notified by one of your students that a professional captioner has been booked. Preparation materials can include presentation slides or lecture/class notes so that the captioner is familiar with subject specific terminology and names etc.

  2. When you are ready for your class/lecture, start your Zoom meeting as normal. You may need to ask the captioner to identify themselves. Once you know who will be providing captions for the meeting, you must click on the Live Transcript button, and then click on the Assign a participant to type and assign the captioner.
