VETERANS HISTORY PROJECT

One way that we can offer our services, while giving back, is partnering with the Library of Congress in gathering the stories of our veterans and recording them as a part of our American history forever.

Student recruitment

Because of the increased demand in court reporting, student recruitment and mentoring is necessary and more needed than ever before. CTCRA endeavors to help lead in the effort to keep our profession alive. A to Z Program is FREE for those who want to see if court reporting is for them.

 

painting with a twist/Social events

It’s been a while since we have had our social events throughout the year such as attending Painting with a Twist or similar events to help break up the monotonous pace of our demanding careers. We’re praying that we can do some of these fun events again soon to help us unwind from work and catch up with each other.

Since the pandemic began in March of 2020, we have been trying to hold a Zoom happy hour every couple of months to keep in touch. If you would like to be added to our email list or would just like to reach out for any reason, please send us an email at ctcra5@gmail.com. We’ll send you a link to join our Zoom happy hours when we have them. Realizing that we’ve been doing all or most of our work remotely, it seems that we’re more isolated than ever. If you need a reporter to connect with, even if it’s just a quick phone call, please email us your contact info so we can connect with you! We miss everyone and hope that everyone is doing well!

CONTINUING EDUCATION

Since CTCRA, as a smaller local association, hasn’t had many opportunities for CEs, we encourage you to get plugged into our state associations, TCRA and TEXDRA, for ongoing continuing education. When CTCRA does start to offer CEs again, they are offered at no cost with a paid yearly membership of only $50 per year! And students are welcome to join CTCRA at no cost as we have reporters that sponsor students’ memberships.

TCRA, one of our state associations, holds CE throughout the year to help reporters get their CEs while staying educated and informed. Click the button below for more details!
