CA Court Reporting - Online Programs

Hello!

I’m looking into self paced, online programs like Careerluv, Annie Hall or Mark Kislingbury’s programs. Do you feel like these programs also prepare you to work in a court environment, prepare transcripts, work with judges and lawyers, etc? Am I better off going to a college?

For anyone that’s gone through any of these programs from beginning to end, did you feel prepared for being a steno machine court reporter once you were certified?
