I have recently enrolled in a Medical Transcription Course - HELP!!? |
The courses I registered through is with US Careers - http://www.uscareerinstitute.com/index.a... Since I only signed up last Thursday, it may be too soon to tell if this is legit. I have not recieved any email confirmation. I have verified that a charge was placed on my CC, ($5 to start). Is anyone familiar with this "affiliated" school?? From what I can see, it is NOT AAMT and that is why I am concerned. An email placed earlier this morning has not been returned. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! I would say to go with your 'gut feeling' and not sign up with them. Perhaps there is such a course offered thru the local community college (if even a non-credit course) or county vo-tech school. And please stay away from those 'online schools' such as penn foster and stratford career as most employers don't find them to be reputable. Source(s): Here's the website for the Association for Healthcare Documentation (formerly called American Association for Medical Transcription?): www.ahdionline.org first call them and ask a lot of questions. Ask them to send you any contract and brochures about the school and what they promise (as far as a job is concerned afterward). Then look up on the internet to see if that company is good or bogus. I would not do it. Try your local college or tech vocational school, I am sure they have some classes for MT that will be much more respected by employers. Good luck. |
