How to Choose the Best Legal Transcription Training
The best legal transcription training for you depends on the type of work you want to perform. Some professionals type and format legal transcripts from audio in Microsoft Word, while others listen to the audio and correct, format, and proofread AI-generated rough drafts. Before choosing a program, compare the instructor’s litigation experience, hands-on practice, punctuation and formatting instruction, individual feedback, testing, and certificate requirements. Learn to Transcribe Academy offers both pathways, with training created and taught by Linda Wilson, CCR, a certified stenographic court reporter with more than 40 years of professional experience.
