What does translating a MOOC involve?

Translating a MOOC or a lecture series takes more than subtitles: learners need accurate captions, translated slides and on-screen text, and often a dubbed version for those who do not read fast in the source language. We produce all of it in more than 70 languages, with captions that follow accessibility guidelines and a human review of every file.

A short look at the VoiceCheap engine our team uses to translate, dub and deliver your videos.

What education and public projects require

Public-facing learning content comes with obligations that go beyond translation.

  • 01

    Accessibility obligations

    WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.2.2 (level A) requires captions for prerecorded video with audio. Accurate, readable captions are a standard deliverable.

  • 02

    Text on screen matters

    Slides, diagrams and titles carry much of a lecture's meaning. On-screen text translation can be scoped alongside the audio.

  • 03

    Documented, comparable quotes

    Institutions need a clear methodology and a detailed quote. Every project is scoped in writing before production starts.

What we localize for education

  • MOOC modules

    Short course videos with captions and dubbing in each language.

  • Lectures and conferences

    Long-form recordings subtitled for international audiences.

  • Translated slides and overlays

    On-screen text adapted to each language, as an option.

  • Accessible captions

    Captions in the source language for deaf and hard-of-hearing learners.

  • Synchronized dubbing

    A dubbed audio track that follows the pace of the original speaker.

  • Transcripts

    Text versions for course pages, search and archiving.

Process

One managed workflow, from source video to publish-ready files

Eight steps, two sign-offs from your team and a human quality check on every file.

  1. 01

    Scoping

    We agree on target languages, volumes, output formats, voices and a delivery date before any work starts.

  2. 02

    Transcription

    Your source videos are transcribed with timecodes and speaker labels, using your brand vocabulary.

  3. 03

    Transcript sign-off

    Your team approves the transcript and the glossary of names, products and technical terms.

  4. 04

    Translation

    Each language is translated in context and adapted to the timing of the original speech.

  5. 05

    Translation sign-off

    You review and approve every translation before any audio is produced.

  6. 06

    Dubbing and subtitles

    Cloned or professional voices, optional lip-sync and subtitles are produced for each language.

  7. 07

    Quality control

    A human reviewer checks timing, pronunciation, terminology and the final render.

  8. 08

    Delivery

    You receive publish-ready videos, audio tracks, subtitles and transcripts, with corrections if needed.

Captions first, then languages

Accurate captions in the source language are the foundation: they meet accessibility requirements and become the source for every translation. We verify them before translating, so errors are not multiplied across languages.

Reaching new learners with dubbing

Subtitles are enough for many university audiences, but dubbing helps learners who follow a course in their second language or on a phone. Institutions often dub core modules and subtitle the rest.
