Court reporters, often referred to as "guardians of the record," play a critical role in the U.S. legal system, producing accurate, impartial transcripts of legal proceedings. Yet interest in the profession has plummeted over the last decade, leading to a national shortage of at least 5,000 reporters, according to the Association for Court Reporters and Captioners. It typically takes between 18 and 24 months to earn a court reporting certificate or degree, according to Indeed.
