Why We Started Momentum
Momentum Court Reporting Academy, through Dustin, Carley and Blaine, has one mission: To disrupt traditional training paradigms by equipping highly-skilled, job-ready Certified Verbatim Reporters (CVR) through an innovative, accelerated, and affordable online learning experience.
Leveraging years of training and experience, and even current active practice as court reporters, Dustin and Carley have developed a specific curriculum exclusive to MCRA. Our streamlined modules allow you to move quickly and efficiently through the program, providing the fastest route to a new career that offers true financial freedom, a change in lifestyle for the better, and so much more than just an income.
We understand that change is difficult, sometimes even scary, but our student-first approach extends beyond your studies. We offer a community that connects students with instructors and peers in a supportive network that continues long after you graduate. By joining MCRA, you become part of a community that fosters networking in the best way possible. Our community support allows the student to attack the learning modules most effectively, but it doesn't end there. MCRA will support you from your initial sign-up through your first job as a certified court reporter and beyond. We will work with you through training and practice, celebrate your successes, and support your transition into your new career.
Above all, Momentum Court Reporting Academy is a student-first program that puts your journey into a new career -- or even your first career -- at the forefront. You are what makes MCRA a one-of-a-kind program. We look forward to supporting you today, tomorrow, and every day.

How We Work
Training happens 100% online through bite-sized lessons you can finish on your own time, then reinforce in weekly live coaching labs.
Each module follows NVRA licensing standards, and your lead instructors, Dustin and Carley, still report in real courtrooms, so the skills you practice match what the job demands today.
The Team
The Team
Dustin, Carley, and Blaine are all here for one collective purpose: To change the lives of people who deserve it.
Guess what? YOU deserve it. Our mission is to be your anchor in a growing industry no matter your location, previous work history, or your current situation. We know that change is difficult, especially if it’s a “later in lofe than I expected” career change, but don’t sweat that! We not only believe that there’s no better time for you to make a switch to a career that offers financial stability, but true financial freedom; freedom to travel, own as many books as you’d wish, fix up that old project car you’ve been talking about for years, no matter the ambition, this career offers you the time and the income to do just that.
Momentum Court Reporting Academy is a lot of things but the most important is this: a Student-First program that puts you and your journey into a new career, or even your first career, first! You are what makes MCRA the one-of-a-kind program that it is. Sure! We could talk all day about how great our curriculum is, how FUN the interactive learning platform is, how much we all love getting to know every one of you, but the truth is that YOU are the ones that make us stand out as you become licensed court reporters, aiding in the efficiency of the justice system and standing out as High-Performing, Professional, Timely, Well-Oiled Machines that you are!
We are currently supporting our Founder’s Cohort, and if you missed the enrollment for that, but are EAGER to get started, there’s GREAT NEWS: We CAN still accept you today
