The Verbatim Reporting Skills Training programme is designed to develop the core competencies required to capture spoken communication accurately, word-for-word, in fast-paced and often complex environments. Verbatim reporting is a critical skill in legal proceedings, government inquiries, corporate meetings, media settings, and any situation where an exact, unaltered record of speech is essential.

This training equips participants with advanced listening, transcription, and concentration skills, enabling them to handle rapid speech, overlapping dialogue, accents, technical vocabulary, and high-pressure scenarios with precision. Participants will learn techniques for maintaining neutrality, capturing nuance, and ensuring that every spoken word — including pauses, hesitations, and non-verbal cues — is documented faithfully.

The programme also introduces best practices for using digital recording tools, transcription software, and quality-assurance methods to produce professional, reliable transcripts. Through practical exercises, real-world simulations, and guided feedback, attendees will strengthen their speed, accuracy, and overall performance in verbatim documentation.

This course is suitable for aspiring verbatim reporters, court reporters, transcription professionals, and anyone seeking to enhance their ability to produce complete and accurate records of spoken communication.
