USCRA focuses its attention on matters that affect court reporters who
work in the United States District Court. The National Court Reporters
Association (NCRA) has a broader focus because they represent reporters
working in all fields (i.e. freelance, deposition, official,
captioning).
In this capacity, NCRA maintains a list of certified schools. If you
are interested in pursuing a career in court reporting, USCRA
recommends you check out NCRA’s website at
ncraonline.org. Click on
Education, then Schools & Programs. That will lead you to a page that
outlines their certification process. You can also access their list of
approved schools by way of a link on the left-hand side of the page.
If after reviewing NCRA's website you need further information about
court reporting education opportunities, we encourage you to contact
them at their toll-free number, 1-800-272-6272.
