Overview

The Digital Court Reporting with Legal Transcriptionist training course prepares you to enter the in-demand field of legal transcription with the skills and knowledge needed to be successful. Court reporters and legal transcriptionists are required to create detailed, accurate records of legal proceedings. As litigation continues to rise nationwide and the technology used to capture testimony evolves, there is a tremendous need for these professionals. Digital reporters and legal transcriptionists can work in the freelance market for court reporting agencies/transcription companies or as full-time government employees at a courthouse. There are some opportunities to work remotely in this field.

You will be fully prepared to pass the Certified Electronic Reporter (CER) and Certified Electronic Transcriber (CET) exams offered by the American Association of Electronic Reporters and Transcribers (AAERT). The AAERT's nationally recognized certifications are leading credentials required by various court systems and agencies.

This course will teach students about the court system, legal procedure, terminology, ethics, professionalism, and confidentiality. During the digital reporting portion of the course, students will learn how to cover all types of legal proceedings, including how to work with digital reporting software and equipment. There is no hands-on training with DR equipment. During the course's legal transcription portion, students will learn to format, transcribe, edit, and proofread legal transcripts for correct grammar, punctuation, and word usage. In addition to many exercises, quizzes, and self-graded assignments, students will receive personalized feedback on instructor-graded transcription assignments.

Note: If you are taking our court reporter training course to prepare for the certification exam, please research the locations you are interested in working at to determine whether they use digital reporting methods and ask if they recognize AAERT certification.
