How are captions handled for files uploaded to 3C Media Solutions (TechConnect Cloud)?


The DECT Captioning Grant offers funding to faculty, staff, and administrators of the CCC's for captioning of educational media. 3C Media Solutions (TechConnect Cloud) is in partnership with DECT  and provides the service thru the 3C Media Solutions’ (TechConnect Cloud) website. To request captions for your video or audio file thru 3C Media Solutions (TechConnect Cloud), simply follow these steps:

  • From your "My Media" tab, click the "Details & Options" link to the right of the media you want captions for
  • Under "Tools", click on "Submit the Media for Captioning"
  • Fill out and submit the form

Once created, (usually within 5 working days, depending on length), the caption file will automatically be added to your media and placed in your 3C Media Solutions’ (TechConnect Cloud) account. A message will appear on your account page when the request has been completed. Please check your account for availability.

Please note: Due to funding restrictions, we can no longer support captioning of YouTube videos other than those under our account that originated on CCC Confer. In order to submit for captions thru 3C Media Solutions (TechConnect Cloud), you will need to be the owner of the media, upload the media to your 3C account and then request captions.

For information on how to upload a caption file, please see "Add a Caption File".

*This service is available while funding exists and may be removed without notice. Funding covers educational content with no length restrictions at this time.
