I was actually referring to the allstatetranscription website. I failed to notice that the link didn't show in my original post. Here it is, if anyone is interested.

I believe they would agree with the above Poster, that M-tech and Andrews are at the top of the list. I didn't know those places existed when I started into training. I don't know much about Career Step.

I went through Allied Business Schools, and their MTAPPP (medical terminology, etc) course is excellent, and very thorough, but I felt the interaction was sparce on the Transcription Course. I believe the books they use are good, they just need a bit more interaction between students and staff, more grading and feedback on transcripts. If you want to just work through their textbook on your own to see if that line of work interests you, you could get it from Barnes and Noble booksellers. It is called

Fundamentals and Practice of Medical Transcription, and it would provide a nice introduction to the subject, but I don't advise buying the whole MT course through Allied.
