Steno Training
This training will teach you how the stenographic language works. It includes four
sections breaking down the steno language by phonetic sounds. Each chapter
includes an introduction to five or more sounds. They also include briefs and
phrases to become familiar with. Briefs and phrases are strokes that court reporters
use to combine letter combinations into words or phrases that are used frequently
throughout a transcript. The theory taught is based off of the StenEd theory.
Each phonetic sound is introduced to you, with sample words as needed to
understand that sound. Then you will be given several steno words to practice your
readability of those words. I found it very beneficial to write these words out and
then also write them out in the steno letters so that I was accustomed to going both
directions with my understanding of it.
Learning the steno language with its fixed positions on the stenographer’s keyboard
will enable you to be able to fluently read this language. Many legal terms are
incorporated into this learning process.
There will be quizzes given to you every few sections to show you how well you are
mastering your new language skill. If you get stuck with something, please let Devon
know, and she’ll be happy to help you out.
Learning and mastering the steno language is essential to most scoping work
because it helps one in making dictionary entries, which is the backbone of the CAT
programs we use.
