Welcome to the NCRA Certification Program Homepage.

Certification Exams
One of NCRA's primary objectives is to set national certification standards and assist states seeking to establish certification or licensing requirements. To that end, NCRA has administered its nationally recognized certification program for court reporters since 1937. In addition, 22 states currently accept or use the RPR in the place of the state certification or licensing exam.

Promoting Your Certification
Since their inception, NCRA has been constantly promoting the value of its certifications to the legal community and to the general public as a whole.
One of the ways that you can help us market your certification is by touting it on a transcript cover page. NCRA has a line of custom designed cover pages that you can either download for free as Microsoft Word documents or purchase as sets of 100 cards from our online store.
At this time we have designed transcript cover pages for the RPR, RDR, RMR and CRR.
