Occupational outlook for court reporters


I found an article from the Bureau of Labor Statistics that is very enlightening for those of us planning to become court reporters.

According to the article, the need for court reporters should increase by 18%, which is above average for all other occupations between the years 2008-2018. This projection is due to the continued need for accurate transcriptions of court proceedings and the increased need for closed-captioning for live television and other real-time broadcast captioning and translation services for the deaf and hard of hearing.

If you scroll down to the bottom of the article, you will find a paragraph relating to wages.

I think our prospects look good!
