I was looking forward to switching careers and getting into remote work. I ve learned quite a few things about court reporting and scoping and ISS but the fee to enroll and get a certificate seems almost unattainable for me given the devaluation of my country's currency against the US Dollar. Sad to say that no dream has ever been killed this fast.
I’m wondering why this is still needed in court with all the recording technology today. I understand the CART reporting for Deaf, deaf, and hard-of-hearing people, just not court. In fact in 1989 when I was in court as a witness they used only an audio recorder.
My mentor has mentioned that they have trialed this and there is still imperfections in the translation using technology/ Ai. There is a mixed feeling about bringing in technology/ Ai to replace CR’s.. some are for it, others are not. It’s not impossible, but the transcripts need to be 100% accurate, if not you can get in big trouble for inaccuracy.
Ai and recorders have no way of identifying speakers. What if you have all men and no one knows who said what. Someone sneezes and the words are muffled. People talk over the top of one another. A live, human being is there to stop the proceedings and claify; identify who is speaking; mark exhibits; maintain the official record for appeal. It's more than just pressing record. Not to mention, recorders have not been turned on and entire cases have had to be re-tried.
@Stenogirl-th4mq Failure to turn on a recorder is hardly a system failure. All your reasons are addressable by audio/video tech. If real-time transcription is so good, why are live TV captions so infamously inaccurate? You must be scared to see how fast your job will be taken by Ai. I'm not happy about it but it's simply inevitable. Remember the horse buggy whip makers---- autos don't need buggy whips.
People deserve humans, not AI, when handling life-changing court cases. Deaf and HoH people deserve humans, not AI. There is so much more to this career that you are completely unaware of.

@Stenogirl-th4mq Ai can easily distinguish different voices. With a sample of just a few words, Ai can replicate individual voices. It can separate simultaneously spoken words. I don't know why HoH or deaf is a problem--- Ai can prepare a written transcript instantly. Human transcription is prone to human error.
Oh please. Anybody that thinks this career is still a good choice lives in fantasyland. This is already being done easily and accurately with Video and Digital. Former court reporter here that left the profession because this career is dead. Never waste your money on any school offering this!
I have been doing it for 26 yrs and still going. It is not dead. You obviously didn't like it or had a bad experience. And a digital court reporter is not a court reporter. They don't transcribe the proceedings. In Nevada, digital is not certified so attorneys can't use them.
@@ginad1494 Typical smug response from an older out of touch court reporter desperately trying to save this dead end career. How do you know I didn't like it. Since the mid-80s the Courts where I worked were digital and went to full video in the early '90s. If you are a "freelancer" you are nothing but a 1099 slave that has to buy your own health insurance, pay out of pocket $12,000 for software and writer, laser printer, gas to and from depositions, car wear and tear especially tires, pay your own taxes at the higher self-employed rate...you might as well do Lyft, Door Dash, Uber Eats. Oh, and the only school in my state closed years ago. It's SHAMEFUL you would encourage people to go into serious debt for this dead end job!
It is a very important career. In Houston I have no doubt it is extremely stressful.
Mrs Coronado, she is a pioneer of court reporting. Very kind lady.
how beautiful was that news reporter omg!!
It's not an easy job, but w effort/dedication you can do it
I can’t do this. I crack up too much over stupid stuff. Haha
Do voice writing, I’m a voice writer, you get out of school and into the workforce much faster !
Where do I find this program ?
I hate to sound stupid buts what voice writing? It sounds like a stupid question but there more to it so what exactly do you do for your job?
I wouldn’t mind being a captioner for children I already have childcare experience
Thank you KPRC! ❤

Shorthand is great but it takes a lot of practice 😊.
But worth it when you graduate with an AA and make 6 figures in a short time after graduating.
How many band of ielts is required for digital court reporting?
Where are the links to programs that she mentioned about loaning stenographers? 5:09
Where are these schools to earn a degree without bachelor's degree? I want to go for occupational therapy assistant.
Community colleges
@@pinkorangesoda I got my LPN for $2k at a community college. l don't know why ppl go into debt for a degree they can't afford
omg I could've been on the news 😳

@@richiejohnson The captions that are infamously inaccurate ARE AI, Richie.
what does bfkaw mtenq stand for in english
I have no idea
Isn't AI gonna kill this?
If it does, there will be chaos.
I'm in Southern CA
I don't want to learn typing so fast lol. Rather be Occupational Therapy Assistant. Because I love helping other I have been a caregiver since 1989.
in the age of digital recording, this should be obsolete.

I made $9000 this month as a brand new reporter. Thanks for freeing up more work for me and clearing the profession of your bad attitude 😘

can anyone tell me what this is i english bfkaw mtenq
The reported you can earn up to 60k but in the follow up they said over 100k. Does the additional 40k come from freelance work and transcript sales.
they get paid like 10k a month in san antonio 😭
Everytime they need to loom back at a page in a transcript you get paid $200 a page where I live . Thats what my family told me
