That year, our first certification program was established to individually recognize the competence of court reporters.

NCRA's current-day certification program now has three tiers of achievement and proudly claims nearly 9,000 registered professional reporters (RPR), the updated equivalent of the CP. Over 2,000 reporters have earned the next level of certification, the registered merit reporter (RMR), and over 450 have become a Registered Diplomatic Reporter (RDR). Over the years, NCRA has established six more certification programs: Certified Realtime Reporter (CRR), Certified Realtime Captioner(CRC), Certified Legal Video Specialist (CLVS), Certified Reporting Instructor (CRI), Master Certified Reporting Instructor (MCRI), and Certified Program Evaluator (CPE). NCRA also conducts a nationally recognized continuing education program, accredited by the American Council on Continuing Education and Training (ACCET).
