A Bit of History about Medical Transcription Schools

20 Oct 2007 06:23 PM

I was also sucked into the AHP seminar and sucked into enrolling. I have been a transcription for 11 years in Rehabilitation, but enrolled to cross-train in different specialities to become more employable. I graduated with AHP earlier this year, and they don't do anything for their graduates. I am now somewhat relieved and somewhat upset. I thought the problem was me. I loved transcribing when I was employed, so I think it will be worth it to go through school again, especially if they have job placement. I will warn others if the opportunity arises to avoid AHP. Word of mouth is powerful. Medical transcription is one profession a person can soar in if they are willing to work on their expertise, skill, and education to perfect their career. I guess I have to suck up the mistake of not checking the AAMT site before I enrolled. It was an expensive lesson.
