Certified Deposition Reporter
AAERT is introducing a professional credential, the Certified Deposition Reporter (CDR), that is designed specifically for the digital reporter who captures and preserves the verbatim record by digitally recording depositions and other out-of-court legal proceedings, including evidence under oath (EUOs), statements on the record, oral reply, and aids of execution.

About the Pilot Exam
AAERT has worked hard to ensure that the CDR exam provides a reasonable, realistic, and accurate measurement of how well a candidate possesses the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to perform as a digital deposition reporter. The Pilot Test exam has 166 questions to be completed within four (4) hours.

The Pilot Exam provides AAERT with useful information to evaluate the quality of the exam and its questions. A diverse group of candidates will be selected to participate in the Pilot Test to ensure a valid, reliable evaluation of the exam.
