On Time Typing, Editing and Proofreading has five scribes and minute-takers, based in Darwin (NT), Gippsland (VIC), Cairns (QLD) and Toowoomba (QLD).
Our verbatim scribes have passed the On Time Typing On-site Scribing Accuracy Test, and can type what you say as fast as you speak, then produce an almost-verbatim report or transcript. Our minute-taker scribes type the main points of dictation, discussion or interviews, then produce a summary or minutes. Sally-Anne is also highly experienced in scribing selection reports.
