I am seeking information as to what services are offered by various institutions of higher education in the way of transcription and captioning of audio and video . Our university offers these services, however, I would like to get an idea of how many colleges or universities offer such services and how they are funded; is the service institutionally funded or are there any fees associated with those services (do the colleges or departments pay or is it the responsibility of the instructor to cover the cost, etc.)?

I appreciate your taking the time to address this question and your efforts in creating an accessible learning environment.

Thank you.
