How does the program work?
You start out learning our theory, which takes about six months. Then you progress to our live speed building classes, which are four days per week and an hour and a half per day for each speed group. You work your way up until you get to 225 words per minute! You will also be learning academics along the way with your speed building.
Cost
Our program is $299/month. Student software is a one-time fee of $100. While you are enrolled with us, we provide you with a digital copy of the theory book. Once you get through theory, there will be academics that will be small one-time fees.
How long is the program?
Court reporting is like learning to play the piano. There is no set in stone time for how long it will take you to become a professional pianist. The same goes with court reporting. If you can put in at least three hours on your machine per day, five days per week, you should be able to get to the graduation speed of 225 words per minute in two to three years.
