November 2011
NEW YORK CAREER INSTITUTE AWARDED CLOSED CAPTIONING GRANT
Great Job Opportunities In Fast Growing Field
New York Career Institute (NYCI), located in downtown Manhattan, was awarded a grant by the U.S. Department of Education to develop a Broadcast Captioning & Communications Access Real-Time (CART) Program.
This prestigious grant will enable NYCI to train students in Broadcast Captioning and CART. Court Reporters who specialize in captioning live television programming for people with hearing loss are commonly known as Broadcast Captioners. CART is a version of captioning that allows reporters to provide more personalized services for the deaf and hard of hearing.
Since 2006, federal legislation has mandated that all new television programming be captioned for the deaf and hard of hearing. In addition there is a growing demand for captioning on the Internet, making this a fast growing field for Real-Time Court Reporters.
The anticipated start date for the program is September 2012. New students starting now will have the opportunity to cycle into this new program. NYCI is the only Court Reporting School to be awarded this grant in New York and the entire college community is looking forward to making this exciting new career path available to its students and to established Court Reporters.
NYCI was founded in 1941 and is accredited by the New York State Board of Regents. The college’s Court Reporting Associate Degree program is approved by the National Court Reporters Association (NCRA). NYCI is located at 11 Park Place, New York, NY 10007, one block from City Hall. For more information, call 212-962-0002 or visit NYCI’s website @ www.nyci.edu.
