What it does

(1) Existing law establishes the Court Reporters Board of California for the licensure and regulation of shorthand reporters. Existing law generally requires an applicant for a license to, among other requirements, pass an examination consisting of 3 parts, one of which is labeled Dictation/Transcription (Machine/Skill) . Under existing law, successful completion of the Certified Verbatim Reporter (CVR) or Certified Verbatim Reporter-Stenotype (CVR-S) certification administered through the National Verbatim Reporters Association satisfies the requirement to pass the Dictation/Transcription portion of the examination.
