Audio and video transcription is a job in Item Bank Health Check (IBHC) that automatically generates transcripts for multimedia Items that lack them.
This functionality provides a text-based equivalent of video or audio content, ensuring that content is fully accessible to learners who are hearing impaired, or who simply prefer a textual alternative.
By implementing these transcripts, you ensure your content aligns with global web accessibility standards, and maintains compliance with regional accessibility regulations at scale without manually transcribing each media element.
IBHC is a premium feature and may not be included in your product license. For more information, reach out to your Learnosity Customer Success Manager.
Note that this only addresses Items with missing data and will not overwrite existing transcripts.
