Internet Scoping School is the first Internet-based online scopist training course and has been in existence since 1998. It is not only the most comprehensive training course available, it is also the scopist training course that most actively advertises and provides marketing opportunities for its graduates.
This course offers training in all the essential elements of being a scopist:
- “Quick and Easy Punctuation,” based on Morson’s English Guide for Court Reporters,” (provided) the basis for the new punctuation course being offered to court reporting schools by Stenograph University;
- Reading of stenotype (machine shorthand) notes;
- Medical Terminology, based on the book A Court Reporter’s Guide to Medical Terminology (provided);
- How to produce a high-quality, well-edited transcript, meeting the requirements of a variety of reporters;
- Tons of tips - garnered over a 25+-year scoping career - on everything from marketing to reference materials to ethics to being involved in the scoping profession;
- In-depth training on Case CATalyst software, made by Stenograph Corporation, the largest provider of court-reporting software, servicing 60-65% of practicing court reporters.
- Approximately 50 files written by about a dozen different court reporters upon which the student can practice editing, then compare his/her work to the edited file.
