2025 Court Reporting & Captioning Week has ended, but the spirit of celebrating the stenographic court reporting and captioning professions is never over. NCRA members and state affiliates will continue to promote the professions throughout the year by participating in career fairs, hosting Veteran History Project events, and more. Remember, the Court Reporting & Captioning Week resources page is available throughout the year and features a link to NCRA’s Career Day Tool Kit as well as a catalog of downloadable resources that can be customized and used to promote the professions anytime. In the meantime, if you missed how the week was celebrated, below is a recap.
The Virginia Court Reporters Association was the lucky winner this year in the official proclamation drawing. A total of eight states submitted official proclamations to be entered into a drawing to win a free registration for the 2025 NCRA Conference & Expo taking place July 24-26 in Minneapolis, Minn. Read more about who else submitted proclamations here.
