Providing our students with experienced faculty, current theory and curriculum, and state-of-the-art technology has been our philosophy since 1984 when Kay Moody founded cenforce 150. As leaders in the field of preparing students as court reporters, stenographers, broadcast captioners, and communication access realtime translation (CART) reporters, we’ve made a substantial investment of capital and time to perfect the delivery of court reporting education. This blended learning environment was created to bring students and their teachers together as never before.

Read more: Our TechnologiesThe EV360 Realtime Theory's basic concepts are not new or unique, but they are based on the fundamental machine shorthand theory developed by Ward Stone Ireland in the late 1800s and the ever-evolving machine shorthand principles of writing from the ‘70s and ‘80s when students were able to finish court reporting school in two years or less. The staff at the College of Court Reporting developed easily learned, logical theory principles that incorporate the latest technology and artificial intelligence. The method is not only a theory but also a method of learning machine shorthand and developing the skill and proficiency to quickly learn how to write rapidly with a high degree of accuracy while incorporating all aspects of CAT software.
