This complete course combines the most valuable and state of the art training methods available today for those students who want to fast track their Medical Transcription career.

Course work is presented in a modular format and focuses on medical transcription techniques. Other modules cover grammar, punctuation and spelling, and provide a structured insight into medical terminology and anatomy, as well as development of personal qualities like professionalism and ethical responsibilities.

In addition, students are provided with advanced techniques and practice in transcription to effectively meet all of the challenges in the medical transcription environment. Our advanced medical transcription training is challenging and comprehensive, and prepares the student for employment either from home or in a multi-specialty clinic, hospital, or transcription service centre.

This course uses a revolutionary and innovative new teaching process known as the MIME (Mentoring Interactive Modular Education) method of instruction, which provides students with an ever-present mentoring and instructive presence, as well as an extensive array of tools and resources to ensure they excel in their training.

MIME makes online learning easier, faster and more efficient, and allows students to advance at their own pace. Developed in conjunction with the Medical Transcription Training Institute, MIME offers instructor availability 18 hours a day, virtual classrooms, forums, and chat rooms that allow students to interact directly with each other and their instructors to get helpful advice and help with any questions they have.

All modules combine instruction and theory with a hands-on approach so students acquire practical experience early on. Each module is self contained and arranged so the student is fully prepared to successfully advance to the next module.

Whatever your needs, this course includes everything an MT student would require to immediately start working as a qualified professional.
