BeST is the only scoping training program that offers training in *both* CaseCATalyst and Eclipse.
The instructors are full-time scopists with many years of experience on those systems.
They have created comprehensive training videos, "Up-to-Speed" manuals, and offer practice files to
help you get up and running on whichever of these two software packages you select.
The Frequently Asked Questions (below) about scoping in general and about our scopist training program in particular should help
answer many of the questions you may have. Feel free to contact Cathy or Judy for additional information about scoping or our scoping course.

Honestly...
As you're searching for information about BeST®, don't be fooled by other outfits who sprinkle our course
name around their own website in an attempt to lure you in.
As you're preparing to begin your scoping training, don't be lured by "cheap" programs with misleading claims.
Do your homework before you are swayed by another training program. Does the instructor have many years of actual experience as a scopist or have they simply been teaching in another field?
With BeST® there is no additional training material to purchase. Everything's included in one price.
We assist our BeST® graduates in finding work, and they usually wind up so busy that they have to turn work away!
BeST® hours of operation are not limited to 9 to 5 Monday through Friday. We are responsive to your questions 7 days a week.
BeST is the ONLY scopist training program endorsed by Ms. Lillian Morson, THE authority in
punctuation for the court reporting/scoping field and author of Morson's English Guide for Court
Reporters. And BeST is the ONLY training course able to offer this book!
So if you've just enrolled, get ready to learn a lot, have some fun, and begin a scoping career that lets you work at
home, be your own boss, and set your own hours!
