Message from the immediate past President
NCRA celebrating 125 wonderful years of existence is a true testament to the important role stenographic court reporters play in the judicial and captioning venues where capturing the spoken word is a vital skill that involves dexterity and precision.
NCRA Immediate Past President Kristin M. Anderson, M.A., RPR, FCRR
Celebrating a 125th, our quasquicentennial, anniversary is a monumental mark in history. NCRA celebrating 125 wonderful years of existence is a true testament to the important role stenographic court reporters play in the judicial and captioning venues where capturing the spoken word is a vital skill that involves dexterity and precision.
It also reflects the expansion and growth of the profession from yesterday’s pen writers to the skills of today’s realtime writers who stream text instantaneously in the legal setting and who provide communication access of the spoken word to those in the deaf and hard-of-hearing communities.
