Meet the StenoCast Team

Posted in: COCRA Sept '08 Fall Conference

For those of you wondering who the people are behind StenoCast, the people that will be leading the Realtime Seminar that we we have planned for September 20th, I’m happy to introduce you to Messieurs Michael Appelman, Sr. and Jr.  I asked them to introduce themselves to the COCRA membership and without further ado, here they are in their own words.

Michael Appelman, Sr.
California CSR, RPR, RMR
Official Reporter San Diego Superior Court 1982 – 2006
Started StenoCast November 2004

For the past four years we have focused on one issue: How to make realtime feasible for every reporter. Through our tech support at StenoCast we have encountered virtually every issue that confronts the realtime reporter. Most issues boil down to a COM port or baud rate setting, or something relatively simple to fix. However, when you add in a heavy dose of stress and a few extra sets of eyes watching the reporter’s every move, it’s sometimes difficult to remember even simple things. Who do you call for realtime assistance when you’re in the middle of a job? This seminar will help you to think logically and systematically through the various issues you face in the real world and, more importantly, teach you how to fix them.
