Our Mission

The average working reporter in the verbatim studies industry is currently between 50 and 55 years of age. Canada desperately needs a new generation of work-ready court reporters now. The mandate of our program is to address this need, and to replenish and fortify the ranks of the industry with expertly-trained, highly-skilled reporters and captioners. By its mere existence, CCVS doubles the nation’s potential yield of court reporters. Of equal importance, our exclusive practicum (work-study) helps our valued students to adjust realistically to the demands of working in the field. We’re committed to producing trained professionals, and to placing those professionals in lucrative and rewarding positions after graduation.
