The National Court Reporters Foundation was excited to announced last year the launch of a brand-new merit-based award worth more than $5,000 in tuition plus the use of a student writer and software. The Stenograph Milton H. Wright Memorial Scholarship, honoring Stenograph’s founder, offers court reporting students material support during their schooling.
To be eligible to apply, students must have an exemplary academic record, have passed at least one skills test writing 90 wpm or higher, and write an essay. Full details and an application can be found on the scholarship web page. Applications will be accepted through March 19.
“This exciting opportunity is designed to support the growth of the court reporting industry and assist students on their path to joining the profession,” said Mark Kuczora, Stenograph Vice President of Marketing. “We can’t wait to begin the selection process and help talented students in our community achieve their dreams.”
“We at the Foundation are proud to partner with Stenograph and offer this generous student scholarship,” said NCRF Chair Doug Friend, FAPR, RDR, CRR (Ret.). “We are hoping for a slew of student applications for this tuition, machine, and software scholarship package.”
Stenograph has worked closely with the Foundation for many years, including sponsoring the NCRF writer raffle each year which serves as a great resource that allows the Foundation to deliver its awards and outreach program.
