(A quick heads up that the graphic says that the Tuesday sessions are on the third Tuesday of the month; this October, it's on the second, because we were one day out! And we can't reschedule it due to conflicting commitments. But going forward they will be! Thanks for understanding.)

Our client observed that "participants put so much faith in us as researchers to authentically represent their lives and stories" that transcription can be "an important way to honor" that trust. That's why it matters to us to treat data with respect, and create transcripts you can trust.

Screenshot of a client testimonial which reads:

1. What led you to book transcription or closed caption services with AAT?

I was looking for professional quality transcriptions for a qualitative research study on educational equity. Our research participants put so much faith in us as researchers to authentically represent their lives and stories. I've come to think of transcription as an important way to honour participants, especially when studying sensitive and personal narratives. AAT takes that seriously and puts so much effort into creating high-quality transcriptions of interview conversations. I appreciate the detail, confidentiality and respect that AAT practices in all their work.

This is a great question. We work with the author to follow their dictation how they want as closely as possible, including indications around punctuation or anything else. If the author is dictating speech, we’ll transcribe it as speech; but if they’re dictating prose, we’ll transcribe it as prose!
