#### Decide which virtual platform to host your event

Please choose a platform whose user interface that conforms to level AA of the [WCAG 2.1 standard](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/). Additionally, we recommend reaching out to users with disabilities to test the usability of your platform and the way you’ve implemented your event.

People who are deaf, hard of hearing, or sign language-fluent may struggle with written captions as it's their second language. Sign language interpretation also enhances the experience by conveying intonation, emotion, and meaningful audio information.

Unfortunately, these technologies often make errors which disadvantages users who rely on captions. Automated captions should be used as a last resort only or for events of lower importance. Use Communication Access Realtime Translation (<abbr>CART</abbr>) instead.
