Court Reporting Institute of Dallas Online

The Court Reporting Institute of Dallas was founded in 1978 and has since grown to become one of the largest court reporting colleges in the United States. In 2002, the college opened a campus in Houston to offer high quality court reporting education to the southern region of Texas. And in 2006, the college launched a 100% online court reporting program so that we could provide outstanding court reporting education to people across the nation.

For more than 25 years, the Court Reporting Institute of Dallas has trained court reporters. Unlike other colleges that simply have court reporting as one of the many programs they offer, CRID only offers one program, an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Court Reporting. What this means to our students is that we focus 100% of our time, energy, and resources on providing the finest court reporting training possible. We’ve helped hundreds of people like you change their lives by entering the exciting career of court reporting.

We are extremely proud of our college’s heritage and achievements.
