It is a dream come true! I cannot articulate how grateful I am to Linda and her staff for this experience. It has been life-changing. If you are considering a career in court reporting, broadcast closed captioning or CART, look no further. You have found Court Reporting and Captioning at Home. There is not enough space in this testimonial section to fully encapsulate my experience with the Court Reporting and Captioning at Home program.
I have trained many students over the years in the United States as well as internationally, and I am extremely proud of them all. However, I am exceptionally proud of these students who trained on the other side of the world in Africa! The Zambian judiciary through its IT expert, fondly referred to by the students and reporters as Mr.
However, after several communications, the judiciary selected us to train the first 10 realtime writing court reporters! I could work my practice into my schedule while continuing with various volunteer activities and while being there for my children after school. Court Reporting and Captioning at Home fit perfectly into my schedule. The Support Department is wonderful! I knew then and there I wanted to be a court reporter as I watched her leave the office….
I purchased it, and a few months later, I started it right away, practicing as much as I could. Unfortunately, being newly divorced and having two little girls, I kept putting my practicing on the back burner. One morning, I knew it was now or never. The difference was, this time I was determined. Nothing was stopping me this time.
I contacted a few agencies and met some different people in the industry and got out there to start work! I recently contacted Linda Bland to tell her of the news, and she was so excited to hear from me!!! It made me feel incredible, and I owe it all to her and her wonderfully structured court reporting and captioning program!
As long as I gave whatever amount of time I could, even 30 minutes, I realized it was better than nothing. Some days I was able to practice 5 hours and other days only 30 minutes. I would watch TV and take my writer out and practice!!! I did whatever I could to get my practicing in! Take it from me. I get to meet great people and make fantastic money at the same time! The possibilities are endless!!!
I was a Medical Transcriptionist for over 10 years, and because our jobs were being outsourced, I began earning less and less. I started working 6 days a week just to try to make ends meet. I was working longer hours but still not making enough money. I am a single mom and have three children. I realized it was time for a career change.
After much research, I decided I wanted to pursue court reporting. I began training at a t raditional court reporting school but got stuck at wpm for over 6 months.
I felt I was wasting my time and wanted to quit school. I was at my wits end. By that time, I had already accumulated a substantial amount of financial aid loans and thought I should quit before the amount increased even more.
But here I was stuck at a dead-end job and now had loans to add to my debts. I contacted Linda, and she took the time to speak to me for a long while and answered any questions I had. I think she heard the desperation in my voice.
So I had to choose. Did I want to buy all of my children something they had really wanted, or did I want to spend it to take a chance on this program?
I knew the CRAH program was my savior. I took the chance. Court Reporting and Captioning at Home immediately developed a Speed Building Practice Regimen just for me based upon 3 hours per day, but I often practiced longer.
This was MY usual day Monday through Friday:. On Saturdays, I worked from a. The rest of the weekend was my special time with my children. But if we were watching t. I followed my Speed Building Practice Regimen to the letter, and when I had built my speed, which took me about months after I started with CRAH, I visited the courthouse where I had originally gone before starting school to find out about the career of an official court reporter.
I was going to contact CRAH to establish my internship, but this just fell in my lap! So I interned at the courthouse for about 6 months, and then I ran into a freelance court reporter with whom I had also spoken about the career of freelance court reporting before I began training, and she also offered to let me intern with her. I interned with her for the summer. Soon after, I received a phone call from one of the court reporters at the courthouse saying they had an opening and asked if I would like to apply for it.
I was SO excited. I could hardly wait! However, the sister of one of the court reporters was also going to apply for the position. I went to the courthouse and took a 2-voice dictation test where two people read to me from a transcript. I prepared my transcript and waited. I assumed the sister of one of the court reporters was offered the position. I have been an official court reporter now for about a year.
I just LOVE it! I passed the WKT on the first attempt. My income has doubled from when I was a Medical Transcriptionist. I wanted a better life for my children. They deserved it, and frankly, so did I. You CAN make the time to practice. Make a commitment to your family and to yourself. Make the time to practice. The lessons were easy to understand and the motivational quotes pumped me up and encouraged me to set my own schedule and continue toward my goal.
It was very important that I secure a structured practice tool that would accommodate my busy schedule due to a sick family member and a new baby boy, thereby giving me control of when and how much I practiced and allowing me to determine how quickly I completed my training.
When I had a question I could reach my support staff for an immediate response. The Court Reporting at Home progam to me is by far absolutely the best realtime writing home study program available today. I decided to become a court reporter later in life. I have been married for 22 years and have two daughters ages 19 and 17 that are home schooled. So my court reporting training worked out perfectly with their schedules, because we were able to do our lessons at the same time.
I had thought about going to my Community College, but I knew that it would take me too long to finish. At the Community College you were totally dependent on their class schedules, and the CRAH self-paced program worked beautifully for me, allowing me to work it into my life at times that were convenient for me. I was very impressed with the study program and the number of practice CDs and DVDs, and the academics were wonderful.
I completed my entire program in 21 months. I interned with a local court reporting company, and two weeks later I went on my first depo by myself. It is a very professional, knowledgeable, supportive, and reputable company. I would highly recommend it to everyone.

She is now preparing to take the RMR Examination! CRAH has furnished her additional practice and test materials to help her achieve her next goal of wpm Testimony, Jury Charge, and Literary! I was a court reporter who quit reporting 22 years ago and wanted to return to the field. I am so thankful to have found CRAH! It allowed me to easily adapt to the new court reporting technology and regain my speed and become a realtime writer. The CRAH program and support staff have made it possible for me to accomplish all this while still working full time.
Thank you so much for this excellent court reporting program! I knew nothing about court reporting when I found the Court Reporting and Captioning at Home program. I started from the beginning with CRAH, and at the end of my court reporting training, they helped me establish an internship with several court reporting agencies. The CRAH materials are excellent, both academics and speed building, and the support is the most important factor in helping you complete this court reporting training!
CRAH Support has been such a blessing to me. You receive free lifetime support, and they have always been there to answer me. Now that I am working professionally, I find the support no different than what it has always been, responsive and professional. I want to wish all of the future and present court reporting students of CRAH the best. Your future is right at your fingertips! You can be another CRAH success story. Hello, my name is Lori, and I live in Texas. I recently completed my court reporting and closed captioning course with Court Reporting and Captioning at Home.
I absolutely cannot begin to explain all the wonderful things about Linda and the support staff of professional court reporters. Any time I needed help, someone was always there to answer my questions or assist in any way possible. Not only do you get support answers and assistance, but you receive continual encouragement from a group of folks for whom I personally have the greatest respect.
That always made a huge difference in my performance and boosted my morale tremendously. I always took away from them greater confidence and felt proud of what I had accomplished. It was an extremely difficult assignment, but I am very proud to say my employer was thrilled with my performance.
I have found my niche! I love providing CART. I just wanted to let you know that your court reporting training program has been incredibly helpful to not just those who want to learn court reporting but for us practicing court reporters out here as well. I ordered the program immediately, and we got started. I practiced by your practice CDs and test CDs for one month, at least an hour a day, and I was able to sit for the RPR exam and pass all three legs in one sitting with very, very few errors.
Thank you so much for all of your hard work and your excellent court reporting program for learning court reporting at home. After a long career in the administrative field, I decided it was time for something different. I wanted something challenging, exciting, and that would alllow me to work for myself. A friend of mine was a court reporter, so I became interested in the field of court reporting. After attending a traditional court reporting school and completing the theory portion of my training, I could not build my speed.
The CRAH program helped me immensely with my speed building. I never felt like I was learning alone, because I always had access to the Support Department. I performed a short internship, and I am now a freelance court reporter and love my new court reporting career. The CRAH program allowed me to fulfill my dream for a fraction of the cost of attending a traditional court reporting school. I highly recommend it! Court Reporting and Captioning At Home.
