Program Details
Facilities
The Court Reporting Institute of Dallas is dedicated to providing students with the materials needed to successfully complete court reporter training degree programs.

Career Outlook
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics:
http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos152.htm

“Employment of court reporters is projected to grow by 18 percent, reflecting the demand for real-time broadcast captioning and translating. Job opportunities should be excellent, especially for those with certification. Demand for court reporter services will be spurred by the continuing need for accurate transcription of proceedings in courts and in pretrial depositions, by the growing need to create captions for live television, and by the need to provide other real-time broadcast captioning and translating services for the deaf and the hard of hearing.”
