Life has taught me when it is time to give up and a few other lessons along the way.
...With a new year, so comes new goals. And while everyone is hyperfocused after the holidays with the numbers on the scale, it’s time to focus on the bigger numbers: speed goal numbers. Have you made your stenolutions for 2022?
According to an article by Kelsey Mulvey published online in Business Insider, 80 percent of all New Year’s resolutions fail by February. That’s millions and millions of people every year that give up and abandon their goals before ever seeing success. Maybe one reason for that failure is because people focus on what they have to give up instead of what they have to gain. As Neila Rey said, “I already know what giving up feels like. I want to see what happens if I don’t.”
...Returning to school is a major commitment, so it's important to research which school/program will be your best choice. But what should you look for when choosing an online court reporting school?
...Ms. Bonni Shuttleworth, CRI, CPE, was named the 2015 Educator of the Year at a special awards luncheon held during the 2015 National Court Reporters Association (NCRA) Convention & Expo in New York City, July 30 – August 2, 2015. Ms. Shuttleworth was selected for this honor in recognition of her commitment to students and her exceptional contributions within the field of court reporting education. Ms. Shuttleworth is the fourth College of Court Reporting (Hobart, IN) instructor since 2001 selected as the Outstanding Educator by NCRA’s Council on Approved Student Education. “This honor not only recognizes Bonni’s talent as a teacher, but it is also a testament to the caliber and quality of CCR instructors,” said Jay T. Vettickal, Executive Director of the College of Court Reporting.

The College of Court Reporting awarded almost $21,000 in professional scholarships to nine recent graduates. This purpose of the scholarship is for College of Court Reporting graduates to enhance realtime skills, obtain professional certification, continue education, and purchase equipment/software. CCR was able to provide this scholarship through the 2012 Training for Realtime Writers Grant it received from the U.S. Department of Education (DOE).

Hobart, IN—College of Court Reporting (CCR) is about to reach its 30th year of operation. Kay Moody (pictured standing with a student to the right), founder of the college, never dreamed that what started as a small school in her home could have turned into the online innovator CCR is today. With over 250 online and onsite students, CCR would now like to invite the community to see what their support has allowed the CCR family to contribute to education.
Over the years, the college has revised its curriculum to meet the high demands of today’s technology. CCR teaches all the courses necessary for a court reporting career, and students also have the opportunity to enroll in additional courses for broadcast captioning or communication access realtime translation (CART) reporting, which aids the deaf and hard-of-hearing. The school’s growth is largely attributed to its ability to innovate and develop instruction with technology in mind.
...Hobart, IN -- College of Court Reporting would like to congratulate Margaret Abernathy, a recent recipient of a Indiana Shorthand Reporters Association Scholarship. The funds were awarded during the convention which took place Saturday, September 28th. In order to receive this award, the students had to submit an essay to the board. This year the scholarship was split between two entries. Congratulations, Margaret! We are proud of you!
