About Us

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. In addition to being one of the few colleges in the U.S. that offers an Associate’s Degree in court reporting , CRID is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Independent Colleges and Schools, approved by the National Court Reporters Association, and licensed by the Texas Workforce Commission.

If you’re looking for a new career and you think court reporting might be the answer, you’ve come to the right place. The Court Reporting Institute of Dallas is the place to train for the exciting and financially rewarding profession of court reporting.
