There are just days left for you to nominate a colleague or teacher for one of NCRA’s prestigious awards: The NCRA Distinguished Service Award, the CASE Award of Excellence, and the Fellows of the Academy of Professional Reporters. Don’t miss your opportunity to shine a light on your peers.

Highlighting the contributions of your fellow court reporters and captioners with a nomination is an excellent way to recognize NCRA members who are giving back. Be sure to submit your nominations for these prestigious awards by February 28.

“These awards reflect the strong camaraderie among NCRA members and the admiration they have for each other. Everyone has a hero in life, and this is the perfect opportunity for members to recognize theirs by nominating someone for these honors,” said NCRA’s Vice President of Education and Certification, Cynthia R. Bruce, M.S. Ed.

NCRA Distinguished Service Award | The Distinguished Service Award (DSA) is the highest honor NCRA can bestow on a member. It recognizes the distinguished work and service by an individual member for the benefit of the court reporting and captioning professions, including service to NCRA as a member, a committee member, a director, or an officer of the Association. Other displays of distinguished work include contributing to the JCR, service at a state court reporters association, or work in the field of public relations or public affairs. Award winners are recognized at the NCRA Conference & Expo.

CASE Award of Excellence | The CASE Award of Excellence recognizes an outstanding educator who has made a significant contribution to the advancement of court reporter education through teaching, research, involvement with students, and the profession. Was there someone special who inspired you or who got you through the ups, downs, and plateaus of your court reporting classes? If your teacher was an incredible influence in your getting started, now is the time to say thank you by nominating them for the CASE Award of Excellence.
