About this course

This course will take you from whatever level you are at, whether beginner or intermediate, to being a top class transcriptionist able to take on whatever work comes your way.

Beginners, intermediate and experienced transcribers who wish to take their skills to the highest level.

Applicants should be able to touch type or be willing to learn and have a high level of intelligence. Applicants will be required to take a short audio test file. All candidates will be given detailed feedback on their test file whether accepted onto the course or not.

No transcription company will ask you for a certificate. They simply want to know you have the skills they require. However, we will be happy to provide references once you finish the course and this is why we require you to pass a test file before being admitted to the course.

This course is unique in that it is provided by a genuine transcription company working in the transcription industry with over 11 years of experience in training its own and other transcribers. We offer one to one tuition and mentoring and work and business advice. Our course is way above other courses and yet offered at a rate people can afford. This course is perfectly suited for those wishing to acquire the skills to work from home as an audio transcriptionist.

Applicants are sent a short test file to test eligibility for the course, followed by feedback.
