Went to a one hour seminar for this, the guy from Weston used a really good sales pitch basically. They tell you they are approved by AHDI and they aren't. I've emailed and spoken to AHDI and they are not an approved school they paid to be a memeber of AHDI and refuse to let AHDI review them to approve them as an accredited school. Second I work for a certified testing center and I know for a fact you have to take the RMT or CMT test at this center. They tell you that once you pay almost 3 grand and take this 5 month 5 course studies you will receive a diploma and you can get a job. That is false. You won't receive a job through anyone. I have 44 pages of companies that state they test you themselves and if you aren't in the high grade passing percent you aren't going to get hired plus they want after schooling intern experience and ahdi approved school students. Also, I called their support 800 number and asked them how soon they schedule the RMT or CMT at a certified test center, Corby, the man I spoke to, stated that Weston/At Home doesn't schedule your testing for you. I know for a fact that you have to go through the schools to get a test to be certified or enrolled etc. This Corby person stated that you have to set up this test on your own and then you can certify for the RMT/CMT and all they send you is a certificate of completion. No diploma, nothing to say you can now find a job, and I highly doubt if you don't find a job that they will pay you back your 3000 you paid them. It's smart to just find an approved school through AHDI or a community college locally to take the Medical Transcription courses. It may take longer to finish but it cost half as much and you will have an actual DIPLOMA or AAS or whatever for it. Also, I found a few people who went through Career Step (AHDI approved school) and had a job within 2 weeks after graduation and certifying.
