Stenographers' Guild > Activities

The Guild

The Guild founded by Late Rajaji, was established in the year 1937. Since then, many stalwarts and veterans contributed to the development of the activities of the Guild, mainly in practicing High Speed writing in Pitman shorthand. With the passage of time, the Guild Management felt the need to introduce computer courses in addition to teaching Pitman shorthand.

Presently, the Guild is teaching various computer courses. With this background, Mr. Walter Kistler offered to teach Newrite shorthand to the first batch of students by offering a moderate stipend to deserving students and scholarship for other students through the Guild.
