School Location
Clark State students learn to write realtime using a computerized machine and to prepare transcripts using computer-aided transcription (CAT) software. Students' writing skills are perfected by utilizing a mock computer-integrated courtroom (CIC). All Realtime Reporting students are required to purchase a computerized writer and a laptop computer.

The program schedule that follows is designed for full-time students who have completed all prerequisites and who have no college preparatory recommendations. Many individuals, especially part-time students and those taking college preparatory courses, will require additional quarters of study. Students should consult their academic advisor for help in planning their schedules.

Students will follow the curriculum of the Realtime Reporting program through the first year before deciding whether they will select Judicial Reporting or Broadcast Captioning/CART as their career goal. All Realtime Reporting students may also elect to follow both tracks, graduating with a degree in both options.
