2020 Section and Committee Annual Reports
|
|
 |
Although we are excited to see 2020 behind us, the voluntary groups of the State Bar had an active year of service and outreach!
Peruse through the collection of annual reports to learn what your section or committee accomplished last year. If you are interested in joining a section or committee, their annual report is a great way to learn about their initiatives and events!
Divisions are not required by State Bar bylaws to submit annual reports, but you can still learn of all the great work they do by visiting nmbar.org/divisions.

2021 National Court Reporting & Captioning Week
The National Court Reporters Association, the country’s leading organization representing stenographic court reporters, captioners, and legal videographers, has designated Feb. 6-13 as the 2021 National Court Reporting & Captioning Week. The weeklong event themed ‘All you need is love and steno’ brings court reporters, captioners, court reporting firms, schools and others in the legal industry together to help highlight the many aspects that make court reporting and captioning a viable profession. Those aspects include a quicker entrance into the workforce since no four-year degree is required, good salaries, flexibility, interesting venues, and the increasing demand for more reporters and captioners to meet the growing number of employment opportunities available in the field.
