How is the MT School of Canada program different?
Our reputation depends upon your success. Although we don't
do the assignments for you, we will hold your hand every step of the
way. Our students tell us the MT School of Canada program is different because
of the following:
Interactive, not just on-line! First, not only is
the MT School of Canada program an on-line program, it is interactive-which
makes learning fun. Students say they progress through the modules
without even realizing it because they're so immersed in the subject
matter due to the way it is presented. Yet, at the same time, the
material is so in-depth! We've had students that have come from other
schools who say that there is just no comparison to the quality of
education they receive with MT School of Canada.
Latest technology - FTP* instruction - the wave of the future (no more tapes). Everything you need to work from home is included with your course, including a wav pedal and software that allows you to download voice files and transcribe information.** Most employers require FTP knowledge and this course uses FTP to help you learn.
*FTP means File Transfer Protocol. It's a method of uploading and downloading files from the Internet from a private server. Don't worry about the details right now. You'll soon learn everything you need to know to succeed with FTP.
**This software is for training purposes only and must be returned at the end of the course. The Wav pedal is yours to keep as our graduate.
Solid Curriculum. MT School of Canada's parent program, MT Advantage Career Center, is an educational member and a sponsor of the AAMT (American Association of Medical Transcription.) The MT School of Canada not only meets, but exceeds, the model curriculum recommended by the AAMT. This ensures you get the quality education you pay for - and then some!
Professionally written by doctors and other health professionals. The MT School of Canada course includes hundreds if not thousands of professional photographs and professionally written subjects on nearly every medical specialty. The interaction part of the course keeps the learning light and interesting. In fact, we even have an M.D. on our staff who does nothing but answers our students' medical questions!
The MT School of Canada program includes hundreds of actual medical reports. These are not just any reports - they contain actual physician dictation, professionally recorded and chosen for a specific learning purpose. Some reports will teach you intense terminology. Others help you learn and master foreign accents. All reports help you learn to transcribe in a professional manner from your home, just as you'll be doing on the job. You won't find more reports -- or better quality reports -- in ANY other program.
Student forum for fun and learning. You'll be part of our student forum, where you may participate in discussions about medical subjects, working conditions, job openings, hobbies, earnings, line counts, and much, much more. As a graduate of MT School of Canada, the student forum is available to you forever!
New online classes! For those who love the interaction of the computer AND the interaction with other students. Compete for reference books and other prizes! Our students say these online classes are fast-paced but fun and filled with practical MT information!
Learn gradually, in stages. Our program outline is a bit different than most other courses. Based on our experience, students learn much faster and retain more information when introduced to the specialty matter in stages rather than all at once. For this reason, the MT School of Canada course works in gradual stages, introducing you to transcription by requiring you to type specialty words or clips, one at a time by listening to small sound files throughout the online course. Instant feedback from the program confirms you've spelled each word correctly. Please click here for the on-line demo. But that's just the beginning. After you've transcribed over 2000 sentence clips and paragraph snippets, you will start transcribing the SUM reports on CD. The result is a well-rounded solid education that makes you VERY employable.
Comprehensive modules for all specialties. You'll learn about anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, and disease processes. Unlike other programs, the comprehensive MT School of Canada program includes laboratory and pharmacology terms. You'll also learn keyboarding, computers, macros, FTP, punctuation and grammar, legal issues, confidentiality laws, and so much more!
Start transcribing with the very first medical module. After you've completed each module, which usually takes about 6-8 hours, you can listen to the audio pronunciation of each term, then transcribe the word and sentence clips which contain medical phrases and common terms associated with that specialty. Our automated computer grader provides instant feedback for these word and sentence clips and lets you know what changes should be made. Since the program is interactive, you can practice as much or as little you like on any given specialty! With our vast training experience, we've learned this is the fastest way for students to master the medical transcription process before moving on to the Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced SUM reports.
Experienced instructors and mentors who care. Our caring and committed staff sets MT School of Canada apart from other courses, making us one of the best in the nation. Many transcription programs assign you one instructor throughout the entire course. MT School of Canada is different. We realize students need the expertise of multiple instructors and advisers. That's why you have access to all instructors and staff members. The end result is a more rounded education which helps you achieve your goal of successful employment!
