Western College Court Reporting School in Cerritos California CA
Court reporters transcribe spoken and/or recorded speech into written form, typically using a stenotype or a stenomask to produce transcripts of court hearings, depositions and other official proceedings. These shorthand systems allow the reporter to keepup with the flow-of-speech so that no words are missed. In some cases, the court reporter is often also a notary public who is authorized to administer oaths to witnesses, and who certifies that his or her transcript of the proceedings is a verbatim account of what was said. It typically takes two to four years to learn the basic skill set to become a court reporter. Candidates usually attend specialized certificate, associates, or bachelor's degree programs at accredited colleges or universities. Distance learning and online training courses are also commonly available.
After additional training and experience, most court reporters then move on to real-time reporting.
