Dictionary Jumpstart Launches New Web Site

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - Jan. 16, 2017 - PRLog -- Dictionary Jumpstart ™ (DJ), a dictionary building software company for court reporters and broadcast captioners, announces the launch of their new web site, www.LearnToCaption.com (http://www.LearnToCaption.com).

"This project has been in development for several months now. We are thrilled about the launch and all of the resources the new site has to offer captioners and court reporters," shares Anissa Nierenberger, founder and owner of Dictionary Jumpstart. "Our main goal during development was to make the site a 'one-stop-shop' for anything and everything a court reporter or captioner may need for training, software and resources."

Founded in 2000, Dictionary Jumpstart began as a small project at Nierenberger's kitchen table to help a fellow stenographer. What followed, was the creation of a cutting-edge, Realtime Dictionary Software that helps steno writers build their vocabularies across the United States and abroad. The software has helped hundreds of reporters improve their dictionaries and allowed them to explore other areas of reporting, including captioning and CART captioning with a realtime writing advantage.

As Dictionary Jumpstart began to make its way into the niche market of court reporting and captioning over the last 17 years, the owner also began to develop areas for consulting and training opportunities. Potential students can enroll in specific courses online through the new website.

"LearnToCaption.com is the culmination of several areas of my work over the last two decades," shares Nierenberger. "Since developing the software, I've also begun teaching courses for court reporters who want to break into other areas of reporting like broadcast captioning and CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation)." There is a new demand on court reporters to write with realtime accuracy. Industry standards show that writing for realtime saves a reporter a lot of time in the long run. "Not having to edit transcripts because they were done correctly the first time should be the goal of every stenographer and reporter." Nierenberger is also listed as a keynote speaker and trainer at many industry related events and conferences throughout the country including the NCRA (National Court Reporters Association).

Companies that are interested in hiring Ms. Nierenberger for captioning projects and speaking can also find her experience and contact information at her new website. Anissa has provided captioning services for Fortune 500 Companies, sporting events for the NBA, MLB, NHL, NFL as well as College Football games. From local U.S. news markets like NBC, FOX and ABC to Canadian newscasts and the Summer Olympics on CBC, she has provided captioning services for a wide range of businesses and organizations for over 20 years.

Dictionary Jumpstart software and training courses are available for purchase at LearnToCaption.com.
