For some people (like me), I am not a great test taker and the amount of pressure the first time can get to you! But this allowed me to go back, see what I got wrong, go back to the lesson and my notes for review, and then take the test again for a better score- LOVED THIS! \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"quote_block\"\u003e As a hairdresser\/salon owner for 21 years, I must be crazy going to school for digital reporting, right?

Excited to see what’s in store for my second career. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"quote_block\"\u003e I was a bit nervous to take a course online as this was a new career change. However, the guidance and direction I received from my instructor made the experience much more manageable than I had expected. I feel I’m prepared to start working. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"quote_block\"\u003e AI is everywhere - while highly experienced - eventually I would be phased out for someone with less experience who is supported through AI. It was my love for watching and listening to true crime podcasts and real court cases that I witnessed firsthand the importance of the digital court reporter in preserving the record. I became interested in what was involved in this career. The assistance I received from my initial reach out to sign-up for the program and getting set up was amazing. Once I started the program, I reached out several times for assistance and always received a prompt reply - whether from tech support, the advisors, or my teacher. Responses were thorough, and the guidance provided each time helped me achieve success to move forward. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"quote_block\"\u003e I just took and passed my test on the first try with 92.5%. I'm overjoyed and proud of myself. This is a wonderful self-paced program. Knowledge that assistance from advisors is an email or call away, and the most knowledgeable teachers who are ready, willing, and able to help you succeed. I am thrilled I did this digital court reporting program. It is so well rounded and covers literally everything you need to be successful. \u003c\/p\u003e Related Courses Legal Transcriptionist \u003cbr\u003e CAREER TRAINING PROGRAM $1175.00 USD https:\/\/careertraining.ed2go.com\/1111\/training-programs\/legal-transcriptionist\/ LEARN MORE \u003ci class=\"fa fa-calendar ed-cat-week\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e6 Months \u003ci class=\"fa fa-clock-o ed-cat-week\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e100 Course Hours Digital Court Reporting with Legal Transcription \u003cbr\u003e CAREER TRAINING PROGRAM $2025.00 USD https:\/\/careertraining.ed2go.com\/1111\/training-programs\/digital-court-reporter-and-legal-transcription\/ LEARN MORE \u003ci class=\"fa fa-calendar ed-cat-week\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e9 Months \u003ci class=\"fa fa-clock-o ed-cat-week\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e160 Course Hours You've got questions.\u003cbr\u003e We're here to help.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hope Training Academy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47318461710524,"sku":"_GES2096","price":1795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/1391\/6860\/files\/GES2096.jpg?v=1787604602"},{"product_id":"digital-court-reporter-and-legal-transcription","title":"Digital Court Reporting with Legal Transcription","description":"\u003cp class=\"course-intro\"\u003eTrain for a career in the court reporting industry as a digital court reporter and legal transcriptionist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"course-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e160 course hrs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCode GES2097\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen enrollment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf paced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cnav class=\"course-nav\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"#overview\"\u003eOverview\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"#objective\"\u003eObjective\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"#outline\"\u003eOutline\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"#requirements\"\u003eRequirements\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"#prerequisites\"\u003ePrerequisites\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"#instructor\"\u003eInstructor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"#faqs\"\u003eFAQs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/nav\u003e\u003ch3 id=\"overview\"\u003eOverview\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"course-sec\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Digital Court Reporting with Legal Transcriptionist training course prepares you to enter the in-demand field of legal transcription with the skills and knowledge needed to be successful.
