Shorthand is used for minute taking. Personal Assistants and Secretaries at all levels today have to be able to take minutes of meetings. Minutes can be taken in longhand or using a laptop, but the ability of a secretary to keep up with what is being said, and take accurate notes quickly, is often best done by using shorthand.
