Best Answer

A court stenographer is the person that we see in the movies that sits in the court room and is recording what is being said on a machine that looks like a typewriter. If you would like to pursue a career doing this, you could firstly contact your local court and ask for information regarding what is required and the duties involved. Find a school that can train you to attain the necessary court reporting qualifications and skills that you will need. Once you are qualified, get yourself out there, find a job and put all of your hard years of study into practice.
