Students are encouraged to apply for the National Court Reporters Foundation (NCRF) quarterly Career Launcher Student Scholarship. The award covers the cost to participate in the student program, which is $100 for members and $175 for nonmembers. Interested students can apply for the next drawing by the deadline of Dec. 13.
The NCRF Career Launcher training program is designed to provide deposition training tips of the trade. These will serve as a bridge for students of steno shorthand and new professionals between graduation and their first job. The program is offered through the NCRA Learning Center.
Students who are actively studying to become stenographic court reporters and testing at 180 wpm or higher are encouraged to apply. Full details on eligibility and an application can be found here.
Completed applications will be entered into a drawing to take place after the Dec. 13 deadline. Winners will receive an email with a redeemable certificate to take the Career Launcher program at any time. Scholarship applicants who are not selected will remain eligible to win in future drawings, and Career Launcher Scholarships will continue to be available quarterly.
Since January 2022 NCRF has been awarding grants that cover the Career Launcher program fees for students. Five to seven winners are selected each quarter.
