Alabama CCR Information Center

 

ACRA no longer certifies court reporters as Certified Shorthand Reporters.  The Certified Court Reporter (CCR) designation will be administered by the Alabama Board of Court Reporting.  The Alabama Board of Court Reporting will be responsible for CCR testing and licensing of court reporters who practice in the State of Alabama.  Contact the ABCR to request more information.

  • 180 wpm Literary Matter
  • 200 wpm Jury Charge
  • 225 wpm Q&A

Testing fees are TBA.

Reminder: Unauthorized use of the "CSR" designation is prohibited by ACRA and Alabama Law.
