Becoming a Court Reporter in MT

Its natural beauty and open space are the source of its nickname "Big Sky Country" and is a big reason people love to live here. With an unemployment rate far lower than other parts of the states, Montana may also prove a great place to start a career in court reporting. Would-be court reporters here are encouraged to attend an accredited court reporter school, and to pursue their initial RPR credential through the National Court Reporters Association. Some of the best jobs in Montana will be freelance/agency jobs for those just starting out and official court reporter positions with the state for those with more experience. Those who seek official positions will need to be well-trained in real-time reporting and may need to be notaries. Court reporters in Montana network through the Montana Court Reporters Association.
