The curriculum is designed to provide students with a “hands-on” approach to gaining the skills and knowledge necessary to perform the function of a court reporter while understanding the professional and ethical responsibilities of the position. Courses in Theory, Transcript English, Computer Aided Transcription, and Reporting Practices train the students for a career in judicial court reporting. General courses in Oral Communications, Geography, and Vocabulary serve to supplement the students’ education, therefore contributing to their overall knowledge base.
This program leads to a position as a judicial court reporter or a scopist. In this capacity, the students’ duties may include freelance court reporting, judicial reporting, swearing in the witness, producing a verbatim transcript of proceedings, editing and/or proofreading.
To graduate, the student must achieve a minimum grade of “C” in all STE classes.
