Hi all,

I am going to take a medical transcription course. I have decided that I will take the course with either Career Step or TRS Institute. Does anyone have any feedback (positive or negative) on these schools?

Thanks so much!

Neither school uses only certified instructors, so both are poor options. Medline School of Medical Transcription is a much better choice. medlineschool.com/

Hello Michelle,
I graduated from Career Step and I have no complaints with them. They really prepared me for everything. I got hired 1.5 months after I graduated and was very comfortable when I started working. Right now Career Step has a great promotion for Valentine's - get 15% off tuition for the month of Feb. Check it out:

Good luck!!!

I am currently enrolled with TRS Institute. I opted to go with medical transcription because jobs in the medical field are expected to grow. The way I chose TRS is through AHDI (American Association for Health Documentation Integrity). I haven't gotten to the point of looking for work yet, but from what I understand it is out there. The main reason I selected TRS is that they have a paid externship after the course (providing your scores are good enough). Good luck.

I went to MTEC and everyone that I know that has graduated after me has been hired quickly after graduation. The school as a very good standing with MT companies and a lot of companies will ONLY hire MTEC grades. They are pricey but well worth it. I got a job before my graduation letter even came and even had 2 companies at one time.

hey my name is Cassandra and I took classes from At-Home Professions. The instructors were good about returning my phone calls within the hour and giving me helpful hints to the words that I didn't understand. I enjoyed my experience through At-Home Professions. When u receive your reports back they will give u encouraging words and tell u how u can better urself. During ur course with them they will give u a paper $10.00 check for every passing grade that u get on ur reports and after u graduate u send them all the paper checks that they send u and they will give u a maximum of $100.00 check to use as u please. After u graduate if u receive a passing grade u qualify for graduation assistant. Hope that helps.
