Stenography, or shorthand, is a method of rapid writing using symbols or abbreviations to represent words and phrases. Stenographers use this skill to transcribe speech quickly, often in legal, medical, and business settings, ensuring accurate and efficient documentation of proceedings and communications.

In the government sector, stenographers play a crucial role in transcribing speeches, meetings, and legal proceedings, ensuring accurate and timely documentation. They facilitate efficient communication by providing written records of parliamentary sessions, court hearings, and official conferences, contributing to transparency and record-keeping.

Stenography: Career in court

Court reporters – also referred to as short hand reporters – are responsible for keeping written records of legal proceedings, whether in government, court, or private settings. The verbatim documentation in criminal, civil and other court proceedings requires professionals who are highly skilled and trained in court reporting, which usually involves stenography.

Court reporters may also find a wealth of professional opportunities in the fields of closed and real time captioning services, webcasting, and Communications Access Realtime Reporting (CART) reporting, all of which require expert stenographic skills. Voice writing, which involves speaking into a computer that then translates the words into written transcripts, is also another important field within court reporting.
