With recent legal action concerning accessibility, many organizations are shifting their discussions from whether they need to caption to how they will caption and what defines high quality captioning.

In this webinar, Jason Stark from the Described and Captioned Media Program (DCMP) and Cindy Camp from Pepnet 2 will go over DCMP's captioning guidelines and preferred techniques that will help you produce captions that are accurate, consistent, clear, readable, and equal.

This webinar will cover:
== DCMP's captioning guidelines and standards
== The importance of quality captioning
== Preferred techniques for different types of media
== Working with web media that doesn't support certain captioning features
