Hi, guys.
I'm so sorry I haven't been blogging... in forever. :( But I just wanted to pop my head in here real quickly to give you an important link. (Another sorry for not blogging about this earlier. I've had a really bad head cold for several days, and I haven't been on my computer at all.)
CCRA (California Court Reporters Board) is offering Mock CSRs to be given at three California schools on March 16th, Saturday, from 8:30AM to 12:00PM.
In addition to the skills portion (live panel of 4 voices at 200 wpm... just like the real CSR), the Mock CSRs will consist of two WKTs (Written Knowledge Tests):
1) English
2) Legal / Medical / Vocab
Grading won't be done on site, but participants will be given materials to grade their transcripts from home. Also, a minimum transcript review will be given. (I've heard of CSR test-takers getting an automatic fail simply for using an incorrect format. Yikes!) At the end of the session, there will be a Q&A with a panel of professionals.
The three schools where the Mock CSRs will be held are:
Northern: College of Marin, Novato, CA
Central: Humphreys College, Stockton, CA
Southern: Downey Adult School, Downey, CA
I also heard that my school (Downey Adult School) will have professional vendors on site to talk with students about their products (steno machines, steno software, etc.).
Cost is $30 for Student CCRA members and $40 for non-CCRA members. If you pay the $40 as a non-member, that fee will also INCLUDE a ONE-YEAR Student CCRA membership!!! Win-win! Such a great deal!

Today is the LAST DAY to register... so do so today!!!
