Court Reporting, AAS

CRTR.AAS

This program prepares students to work in state and federal courtrooms, transcribing a verbatim record of all trials, motions, hearings, etc. This important work can be intense. In addition to trials in civil litigation, official court reporters are present for all criminal trials, preliminary hearings, motions, etc. The speed-building portion of the program is self-paced, varies for each student, and may continue past the six semesters. Once the exit speed requirements are met and the student becomes certified by the State, they will have opportunities to work as a freelance reporter, official court reporter, broadcast captioner, CART captioner for the hearing-impaired community, or to go on to become a certified real-time captioner working in the broadcasting field.
