Program Description

The certificate is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary for employment and growth in Court Reporting. The program covers skills needed to become Certified Shorthand Reporters (CSR). 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. This credential also provides a foundation for completion of the Court Reporting AAS degree.
