I would refer you to
Meditec.com for a course that is good and deep and also trains you for the real world of transcription with internship afterward. Check it out.
You might also want to refer..
...to the posts above where people are saying they cannot find a job. Heck, one went to Career Step. I guess we should all tell her to be a nurse first. That would work!
You also have to remember about expanders. Maybe some don't use them, but they sure help it you do it right. You don't learn about that in nursing school. It would just be one more thing people new to the field don't even realize they need to learn. That's one more thing they have to do on their own.
Sorry for the sarcasm, but I think banging my head on the brick wall knocked another rock loose. Hee hee. Going back to my own nice happy board.
Please refer to title of your original post SM
and you are getting the opinions you asked for. Had you titled it "please tell me I am right" then I wouldn't have posted to you at all.
TranSCAM
Talk to all of the brokenhearted newbies and wannabes who lost their dough and their time with these hoods.

Thank you so much for all your help and reply, I had a feeling they were, I started doing some research and ended up on your board, I am really glad I did, you all seem very nice and hard working people, helping one another, which is very nice to see. I am really taken by this profession, as i said I am an RN, my issue is, why would i have to take all the course that I have already taken Anatomy and Physiology, and so forth, can I bypass all of these courses that I have already taken, as I said I only want to do this as a side job, I already have a full time job. thanks again!!!!!

No, it's not TranScam, LOL! nm
They are known as TranScam. Unless you won't
to pay to work for someone it is best to stay away. Lots in the archives, none of it good.
That soudns like TranscAm. You can always come here and
post, or the most appropriate place would be to post on the company board. If you are the one above who schooled through At Home Professions you're going to have a difficult time finding a job without getting more training. If you read the jobs ads most companies require 2 years of experience. There are always exceptions and I'm not saying you won't get a job, but if someone graduates from one of the schools that are well recognized they are going to have a better chance than you are, no matter what your grades were.
There aren't any legitimate TranSCam employees.
There was even an article written about them in a national Parents magazine about how they're scammers. They tell everyone they'll "train or mentor" them. They want to charge $300 for a footpedal and software that can't be used anywhere else. You can get a better deal on ebay with a foot pedal for under $40 and download Express Scribe for free.
BTW, I have eight years of experience. I applied there to see what A. would say to me. I know I aced his "exam", but he told me I needed to be trained. Translation: Work for him for free. There's one gal that posted on this website who claims to have worked for him for two years for free now. Don't waste your time or money with it. If you already have, GET OUT! It might take you a while to find a legitimate job, but you will.
