A career in court reporting requires two years of specialized technical training. One of the most essential skills you will learn as a court reporting student is machine shorthand reading and writing. Once you have mastered the steno machine theory, you will focus on developing your speed and accuracy. In order to graduate, students need to write at speeds exceeding 220 words per minute. This skill is enhanced by a spectrum of courses including legal and medical terminology, transcript production, reporting procedures, English for Court Reporters, introductory law, and current events.

The Canadian Centre For Verbatim Studies will prepare you to meet this challenge. Successful Court Reporters can often earn six figure incomes!
