It typically takes two to four years to learn the basic skills to become a court reporter. The minimum speed needed to take the state test is 225 words per minute, which is the required speed for the National Court Reporters Association (NCRA). To be a Certified Shorthand Reporter (CSR) or a Certified Court Reporter (CCR) one must be tested and licensed through either a state agency or the NCRA. The court reporter will be required to transcribe verbatim spoken word into written form to produce certified transcripts of depositions, arbitrations and mediations, court hearings or trials, and official proceedings. Required skills of a court reporter are excellent command of the language being spoken, attention to detail, and the ability to focus for long periods at a time. The most highly skilled court reporters can provide realtime transcription.
