Nothing official on court reporter licensing or qualifications could be found for American Samoa. American Samoa Code Annotated 3.0205 provides that the High Court has a clerk, interpreters, a marshal and such other employees as the Chief Justice deems necessary, all appointed by and removable by the Chief Justice, and does not mention court reporters or qualifications. Appellate decisions of the High Court refer to a reporter who prepares transcripts for appeal, but no job posting, rule or statute setting reporter credentials was located. There is no federal district court in American Samoa.
Exam speeds and legs for the national credentials are on the certifications page; the path from school to the exam is in how to become a court reporter.
