I need some help finding out how to become a court reporter

I have a question and I hope that someone will be able to help me out.  I am looking in to becoming a court reporter, but I do not know what the court reporting requirements are.  Do I have to go to law school in order to do this?  I don’t think so, but I want to make sure.  Do I have to have legal experience, or can I take a course online or at the community college to get the requirements out of the way?  I have done some basic searches online, but I cant find anything that is concrete or that is of any help to me.
