  • Reserve RCC at least 48 hours in advance (two business days).
    We will make our best effort to cover events requested with less than 2 business days notice, but that cannot be guaranteed.

    • For a video meeting, enter 000-000-0000 in the “Teleconference Phone Number” field and the video meeting URL in the “Web Conference URL (Optional)” field.  Include the  conference ID and password, if needed, in the “Event Notes” field.

  • Within one business day, you will receive a confirmation email with the RCC event ID number and link to view captioning.  Save this RCC confirmation email.

Step 3:

  • Approximately 10 minutes prior to the event, the captioner will join the web conference or audio bridge and be ready to caption.
  • When you are ready to join your event, click on the RCC link in your confirmation email.
