Much more cost-effective to get your dictators to use an FTP site.

and they cost an awful lot. TASP's are redundant services for...
MT's who can't figure it out on their own. Why pay forever for files being sent over the Internet when you can get your own software to do it and just pay once?
Can you get samples? And if it's truly awful, QA won't

What an awful person I am trying to get them
away from a bad school. The bottom line is it is a BAD school. Just because people scurry around teaching themselves AFTER graduating from AHP and the likes doesn't mean they were successful because of AHP. They were successful in spite of.

I have talked to dozens of AHP students and graduates wanting me to help them and I have seen the material. To congratulate and praise them on choosing AHP is plain idiotic. If someone reads my negative comments and chooses a different school because of that, great!

Standards are raising in MT even if the pay is not. Companies want to hire people from an MT school and more often than not they want those people to come from a good one.
cost

Tennessee Career College in Nashville, TN. Exact cost for me $9,839.15. I did recieve financial aid to cover it up front so I haven't had to pay anything yet. But I graduated in March and my payments start six months from the date I finished. So if I don't have better income by September I'm Screwed.


cs cost of course

Newbie here will be starting school at C.S. (EVCC) the end of March, was just lookin through all the postings and seen that someone was asking about the cost of the medical Transcriptionist course through C.S which is through Everett Community College,And someone replied they thought the cost was between $1300 - $1500 for the course in the package that you get when you start lookin into this it`s not clear of the total cost of this course.In the package I received it states that the platinum - level enrollment is $1560 and the gold - level enrollment is $1320......To clear this up so no one is as shocked as I was the actual cost for the complete course is $4290 approxamently $1430 for each of the three quarters

Career Step cost
There are different options, but none exceed $2000 - online options are approximately $1300 and $1500. Dale - Feel free to email me and I can give you more details. :)
Do a cost/benefit analysis...
There are some C-phone accounts out there, but I don't really have any solid numbers on how many and their availability. You probably just need to look at it more on the level of the individual account. Is this account one that will give you the means to recoup the expense and make a profit.
It's rare to get the 2nd phone line reimbursed, so need to think about that cost, too. nm

Awful place for a newbie to start! Indian techs, uneven work load, very little help along the way.

I've seen awful work from "experienced MTs and good work from new graduates
I've seen awful work from "experienced MTs and good work from new graduates.

Training and education really does make a difference. Some people just have 15 or 20 years of very bad experience. They may be fortunate that one employer was willing to hire and keep them, but if that one closed, they would be in trouble. It all depends on the person. some new graduates are a better bet then some experienced MTs. I would prefer to find an experienced MT with great skills and a teachable attitude, but many experienced MTs know everything and are only willing to do things the way they've always done them.
