Introduction
Welcome to MT School of Canada! MT School of Canada is a division of Medical-
Technical-Administrative Career Center (MTACC) located in the U.S. You’ve made a
great choice in quality MT education. We want you to get the most out of your learning
experience in our program. Medical Transcription is an exciting field with a lot of
opportunities waiting for well-trained graduates. Working at home is the dream of many
of our students. Many others want the flexibility or potential excellent income that MT
offers. Just remember, whatever your reason for wanting to pursue MT, your goal is
attainable!
Please follow along in this workbook as you move through the course. This workbook
and your initial e-mail will serve as your first source of information. It will be your guide
throughout the program. In this workbook and the Student Forum you will find the
answers to most of your questions regarding the course, and we will point you to where
you can find other answers on our forums. Additionally, your workbook will serve as a
place where you can take notes throughout the program, and it will guide you through
each chapter of the course. You will find lists to check off as you go through the
program so that you will never be confused as to where you last left off in your training.
As you move through the on-line modules you will see many links that are highlighted.
These links take you to interesting articles that will give you more detailed information
about the subject being studied. Take time to read these articles. Remember, the more
medical content that you understand, the better MT you will become. Also, when you
come across words that are highlighted in the course, click on them and you will be able
to hear audio pronunciations of those words.
Course Link: www.mtschoolofcanada.com/school and be sure to bookmark all
your important links.
Resource Library
We have a very comprehensive resource library built into the on-line course. When you
first reach the sign-on page of the course website, there will be a link that you can click
on that will take you to the Resource Library section under the Main Menu on the left.
Please make sure you use this section of the course to your benefit. You will be able to
research the spelling of terms and hear pronunciations using the Resource Library. You
will also find a lot of interesting medical articles and medical resource links here and
throughout the medical modules (Modules 6-26) as well.

Edit Profile
When you first sign into the course with the above link (and the username and password
found in your Welcome letter) it is a good idea to change your password and edit your
profile. You can do that by clicking on your name in the upper right hand corner of the
Main screen. Then just follow the directions from there.
Student Forum
You may be wondering what you would do if you had a technical question, such as you
are not hearing sound when you reach the website audio files. On our student forum you
will find a Technical Forum, and this is where you will be able to search for answers to
questions of this nature. With over 18,000 entries, nearly every subject has been asked
and answered here. Here’s the link:
http://MTACCstudent.invisionzone.com/
You can reach the Student Forum by clicking this link above or on the link in the tool bar
located at the top of your screen in the online course on the left called MTSOC Student
Forum.
Be sure to save the Student Forum in your Favorites so you can access it easily.
You will need to register and be approved before you can read the Student Forum so be
sure to do that right away. Please use the e-mail address that you signed up in the course
with so we can identify you quickly. You will need a username and password, and this
can be found on the Welcome letter, so be sure to keep that in a safe place.
When you have a question, please first search the Student Forum to see if your question
has been asked previously. If you do not find your question there, then post your
question to the correct forum and check back shortly. Usually the instructors or I are able
to give a fast reply. We also have a FAQ board which may contain both your question
and answer, so make sure you check on our Technical page and the FAQ page.
Also, at the Student Forum you will find many different message boards that are
available to our students, mentors, instructors and graduates. Get to know your fellow
students and share the joy of learning together. There are contests and games on the
forums periodically to reinforce your learning and to make it fun! The Student Forum
also includes a chat room where you can meet and talk with other students or play
medical trivia. Get involved with your school and make this a memorable time in your
life.
You’ll want to keep up with announcements and additions to the course as we create,
add, and install them. The announcements are made on the Student Forum. Because we
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 5
don’t want you to receive e-mails that do not pertain to you, the Student Forum is our
primary way of contacting all the students at once.

Quizlet Flash Cards
Here’s something that we think you’ll love! It’s our new electronic flash cards from
Quizlet and you can play as much as you like!
There are 2 types of flashcards we’ve been working on. The first kind is suffixes,
prefixes, root words and anatomy terms for students still in the first half of the program:
These sets are designated with the title “Basic” or “Beginner.” The second kind is audio
flashcards: These sets only give you the name of the module to which they apply. These
will help you to learn to listen and spell -- you type what you hear in the box and the
program will tell you if you got it correct. These audio flashcards are more for our
advanced students as they contain more advanced terminology.
Instructions to Quizlet flash cards
1. Go to www.quizlet.com and create an account with your own name.
2. Log in and go search for folders for MTACC (all caps). For the password type
“MTACCme”
3. Choose your flashcard set – Beginner or Advanced:
4. It will ask you for our password which is MTACCme.
A. For most students, choose the flash cards that say Beginner or Basic. These are
suffixes, prefixes, root words, and anatomy terms.
B. For advanced students, choose the flash cards with only the specialty name. Then
choose Speller at the top. These cards will announce the term or phrase while you type it
in the box. Some of them are very difficult!
5. Many of the terms in the Advanced sets are not pronounced correctly. We have
decided to leave it this way, since that is what you’ll encounter in real life.
6. Make note of the terms you got incorrect and look them up for a definition.
7. There are some sentences in the Advanced clips – some are long and some are short.
You may have to play the audio more than once to hear it all and type it out.
8. Be careful to type it exactly correct, including punctuation. Write down on a sheet of
paper any terms you missed and test yourself with that same set next time.
9. We will have at least 1-2 sets for every module eventually.
10. If you have any questions, or suggestions, please let us know.
Chat Classes
Please join us every Thursday evening at 9:00 p.m. Eastern time for a chat class. This is
extra training time that may help you better understand a subject and have the ability to
ask questions live. It’s also a time to just hang out with friends and talk about any subject
that comes up. The link is located just to the upper right on the Student Forum, and the
exact times and days, if deviated from the above, are posted on the Student Forum. You
can also get there from the online course by clicking the link in the upper left marked
Student Chat.
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 7
Note that every Thursday night at 9:00 p.m. EST is Student Chat night except during the
holidays and part of the summer. Participation is optional although sometimes instructors
and mentors will join in with students and graduates to talk about some area pertinent to
transcription. Many students have said that this hour or so is a wonderful investment of
time because of the practical information they learn. Be sure to check the student forum
weekly for any announcement regarding chat or chat times.

How This Program Works
The MTSOC Program is designed to be accomplished in 2 parts:
First is the online portion (using the Moodle platform) which consists of the
following:
2 MT basics modules
1 extensive grammar and punctuation module
1 computer module consisting of computer and Internet courses through Learn2
1 comprehensive medical suffixes, prefixes and root words module
20 medical specialty modules
The second half of the course consists of the following:
Modules 27, 28 and 29 which are transcription modules. In these modules you
transcribe from one of three SUM CDs which we send to you along with a foot
pedal. You will install the CD per specific instructions, do the work, and then
send the work back to the school via email as instructed for grading and
comments.
Module 30, which is the employment module
Advanced Practice Dictation (in which we work with you one-on-one)
ESL Practice Dictation (this is foreign dictators with accents)
Practice employer reports (in which we work with you one-on-one)
Final comprehensive exam (transcription exam)
The first half of the course (the online material) contains numerous self-tests and a final
exam at the end of each module. These self tests and final exams are for your benefit
only and do not contribute towards your overall grade. They are designed so that you
may test yourself to assess your knowledge of that module’s content. You may take these
self-tests and exams as many times as you like, until you feel you have mastered the
content. However, we strongly recommend a grade of 90 or above on every exam before
continuing on to the next module.
The foot pedal is yours to keep as long as you finish the program. If you decide not to
finish this program, you must return this pedal to us.
Along with your course material, we hope you will participate regularly in discussions in
the Student Forum as well as in the chat room. Extra credit may be given on the final
exams according to class participation in these areas.
Also along with the course material, you are expected to read at least some of the medical
articles that accompany each medical module. Outside reading of medical material is
also encouraged in your spare time. Right now, you are building your foundation of
medical knowledge, so keep reading all you can!
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 9
Note: Our goal is to create a wonderful learning environment for you with up to date
resources. If you happen to find a link inside our course or student forum that is
inoperable, PLEASE send it to us (admin@MTACC.net) so that we can update our
course.
IMPORTANT: You will get out of this course exactly what you are willing to put into it.
It is possible to “cheat” and skip these tests and exams. However, you will only hurt
yourself in the long run, and you will NOT be able to pass our end-of-course Final Exam.
We have seen it happen before, so please be sure to follow the instructions for the course
as you go along and don’t skip anything.
Touch Base
Throughout the first half of the course (the online material), you will see the Touch Base
reminder. Touch Base is a program where we need to hear from you as to your status,
how you are doing in the course, any questions, concerns, frustrations, compliments or
general comments you might have about your work or the coursework. Extra credit may
be given to students who complete each Touch Base within the online portion. You will
find a reminder for the Touch Base every fifth module beginning with Module 5.
Near the end of the first half of the program, at the beginning of Module 25, we have
posted a reminder for you to send the “Equipment Agreement” form from this workbook
so that we may send you the foot pedal and SUM CDs for your transcription practice.
These practice CDs are sent to you on loan only and must be returned upon leaving the
course or after graduation in order that other students may use them. Note that even
though the Equipment Agreement states that a fee is charged, we do not assess the fee
unless the CDs are not returned. If you do not graduate, then we must have the foot pedal
back as well. Complete instructions for requesting these materials and returning them are
located in Module 25, giving you enough time to request them and have them shipped
before you actually need them. Because it may be several months before you get to this
point, be sure to confirm our address on the Student Forum before mailing anything back
to us.
Shipments
Along with your online course access, you will have other items such as reference
materials and other learning items. Please follow the above guidelines for installing or
using these items:
Typing Tutorial – Check this out online and use this to build up your typing
speed as you complete the first half of the course (the online portion). You
should aim for a goal of at least 55 wpm. (If you are already at this level, try
setting a higher goal for yourself.) If you need typing tutorial assistance, please
let us know via instructions in your Welcome Letter.
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 10
Medical Spellchecker – This is not needed until the second half of the program.
(Module 29) Because we strongly discourage our students installing the
spellchecker during their initial training, you will receive the spellchecker at a
later date.
Quick Look Drug List (Excel file) – This is a comprehensive list of drug names
which can be viewed only with the Excel viewer (or the Excel program itself.) If
you do not have Excel on your computer, you may install the Excel viewer which
is also available as a download in the Resource Library and can also be found in
the Pharmacology module. Please install this drug file at that time as per the
instructions found there. Keep in mind, both the drug list and word lists are
designed so that you can add terms to it anytime you like. We strongly
recommend you update this program with the top 200 drugs as soon as you
download it. This puts these drugs’ spellings in the program and gets you used to
typing them. Then keep this list updated with new drugs as you learn of them,
and it will be available for you when you begin working as an MT.
Word List (Excel file) – This is a comprehensive list of special terminology which
can be viewed only with the Excel viewer (or the Excel program itself.) If you do
not have Excel on your computer, you may install the Excel viewer which is
available as a download in the Student Resources section of the online program.
Then you can download the Word List file itself from the Resource Library as you
will be using it extensively within both portions of the program. Keep in mind,
both the drug list and word lists are designed so that you can add terms to it
anytime you like. It even will alphabetize the terms you enter.
Medical Terminology Flash Cards – We have the digital flash cards mentioned
previously on Quizlet and a box of physical flash cards for medical terminology.
These flash cards are meant to be used as soon as you receive them to help you
learn suffixes, prefixes and root words. (Note: Shipping sometimes takes longer
for these flashcards than our other supplies because they come from overseas.)
We suggest you keep a batch of these cards with you at all times in your purse or
pocket so that you can practice with them while you are away from your
computer. It is strongly recommended that you learn all the terms by the time you
graduate from the course. You will find additional suggestions for studying the
flash cards in the Student Forum.
AHDI Digital Book of Style – This is the style guide for the medical transcription
industry. You will be using it extensively within both major portions of the
program. We suggest at some point before you begin transcription practice that
you read this book cover to cover. You will need to know it to pass our Final
Exam and employers’ tests for employment purposes. You’ll also need to know
it in depth to be able to be employed by any one of hundreds of MT services.
Don’t worry if it looks overwhelming – you’ll be used to the rules and such by the
time you graduate. (Even if you can’t remember it all, you’ll still have the book
for reference purposes.)
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 11
Medical Transcription Techniques and Procedures – This MT textbook is an
excellent resource which you will be using extensively with the first few modules
of the online course. It’s okay to skip those modules for now until you get your
materials shipped to you. Just keep the momentum going. Once you get the
book, we suggest you schedule a time to sit down and read the entire book. Some
of the early modules refer you directly to certain paragraphs for more reading
exercise. It is possible, from time to time, that we substitute a newer edition book
from an older edition. For this reason, our workbook may refer you to some
incorrect page numbers from time to time. (Although we do our best to keep
current, this is a very large program to keep updated. Just follow the subject
matter along and you should be fine.)
*Please note it is NOT necessary to do the exercises in this book. Everything you
need to know is already in the online portion of the course. Stick to the course
instructions for the most efficient method through this program.
The Independent Medical Transcriptionist – This book is an excellent resource for
starting your own medical transcription business. So as not to confuse you, we
don’t ship this book out until you reach Module 30 (Employment Module).
Nothing in this book is included in the exam material for the course.
Medical Atlas of the Human Body – This book is a resource book to be used in
conjunction with the medical modules. There are no assignments using this book
since it is used as a resource only. All the anatomy and physiology training is
already included inside the online modules. We do suggest, however, that you
look over each body system as it is covered online. You’ll see some amazing
discoveries with this full-color human atlas.
Sloane’s Medical Word Book – You will use this reference book extensively once
you begin the online medical modules as well as during the entire second half of
the course. It is used as a reference tool only and is a great time saver.
The Remainder of This Workbook
We have made the rest of the workbook here a list of assignments that you are to do to
learn the online portion of the course (the first half). You can print off this workbook for
insertion into a 3-ring binder or you can simply save it to your hard drive to access that
way.
You will see boxes on the pages that follow which you may use to check off when you
complete the material. You may also write notes within the margins or in the space
provided if you have material that you wish to go back and study more at a later date.
The workbook is for your reference only, and you will not be sharing your notes with
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 12
anyone, so feel free to make all the notes you need.
NOTE: If you have not received your shipment or have only received a
partial shipment, feel free to make a note of the Module or Lessons you
skipped and simply go back to them later after you have received your
materials. Please allow 2-3 weeks for your shipment to arrive, although it
usually doesn’t take that long. If you don’t have everything by 3 weeks,
please let us know.
Final Note
It's very tempting to get hung up on doing all the exercises in the books! Right now, as
new students, we understand you are attempting to do your very best -- to learn the
material properly -- and to learn it as quickly as possible. It is understandable that you
want to do the exercises to get out of it all that you can, and I know we have several
perfectionists in the program (and I'm glad!) who are crossing every T and dotting every
i. That's the good news.
The truth of the matter is ... it would take you a LONG time to complete this program if
you were to do every single assignment, read every single article, listen to every single
audio pronunciation, read every single thing on the Internet you find, and do all the book
lessons, etc.
What we need you to understand is that we have mentored hundreds upon hundreds of
students and have seen just about every possible scenario. We already know which
modules are going to give you trouble and which assignments you're going to have a hard
time with. We know that those of you just beginning to transcribe are worrying about
commas, and those of you who aren't transcribing yet are worrying about when you do
get started if you're going to be able to do it okay. We know you have to take care of a
family, a house, a husband/wife, children, pets, in-laws, and a myriad of other demands at
the same time you take the course. It's completely understandable. Deep breath!
What we’d like you to realize, however, is that this program has not only extensive
content, but also a psychological aspect to it. In putting the program together, it was
necessary for us to do extensive research on HOW adults learn best, how they PREFER
to learn, what SYSTEMS make for better learning, etc. A lot of that psychology went into
the creation of this course.
After much experience with new students who are just beginning their working careers,
what this program contains is actually so much more than the nuts and bolts of what
students really need in order to be successful. The important points are reiterated
throughout the program, so if you do happen to miss an important point early on, don’t
worry. It will be repeated. Just try not to create more work for yourself by doing outside
work, book exercises not required, etc. Just follow these instructions and you’ll get the
course finished in the fastest time possible.
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 13
In other words, to get the most out the program, just stay with the outline as much as
possible. It has been written in such a way to maximize your efficiency and your
knowledge without having you spend too much time on details that just aren't important.
In fact, if there is something you COULD do wrong, it would be to spend TOO MUCH
time on the modules and not enough time on the transcription portion of the course which
should take up at least 50% of your overall time spent in the program.
Of course, if you don't MIND spending the extra time, it certainly isn't going to hurt you
one bit! But keep in mind that it might take a little bit longer to do it that way. Luckily,
this is a self-paced program, and you are free to learn the way YOU need to learn, so in
the end it’s really up to you.
However, we promise by the time you graduate, you will have amassed a great MT
education just by following the student workbook, and we would caution against taking
on other studies or self-assignments right now so that you don't get discouraged at the
length of time it takes to get where you want to be at the time you want to be there. Do
not attempt to recreate the wheel by doing extra assignments or extraneous things – it just
isn’t necessary.
Trust the System – It has worked for many, many others
and it WILL WORK FOR YOU!

Getting Ready To Transcribe
The transcription portion of this program is only one module away (Module 27).
Make sure you have a headset (earphones which plug into your computer) within the next
few days. You’ll want this to enable you to hear better. Note: ANY headset is going to
be fine for now. In the past, we used to recommend special types, but with today’s
computers and sound cards, nearly any headset will work.
Make sure you have requested your SUM CD and Wav pedal from our office. Use the
Equipment Agreement located online and in the next few pages to do this.
MTSOC provides this equipment and training CDs to all students at no additional cost;
however, because they are good for training only, the training CDs must be returned upon
completion. The Wav pedal is yours to keep once you graduate.
Please find and fill out the form required for requesting your SUM CD and Wav pedal,
then scan and email to us. (If you don’t have scanning capability, you may skip this step
– just put it in the mail.) The hard copy is not necessary to be mailed to us if you’ve
scanned and emailed. Our current address at the time of your enrollment is P.O. Box
1409, Gloucester VA 23061. You will receive your shipment within 2-3 weeks. Before
mailing, however, we urge you to confirm our mailing address on the Announcements
page of the student forum just to make sure it’s still current.
Your first package from us will include the Wav pedal and Beginning SUM CD. Once
you finish with the Beginning SUM CD, simply send it back via sturdy, insured mail.
Upon receipt, we’ll send you the Intermediate SUM CD. Once you finish with that, send
it back via sturdy, insured mail and we’ll send you the Advanced SUM CD. After that is
the ESL CD.
Once you finish the program, send back the ESL SUM CD and request your post-
advanced reports. These are what we’ll be working extensively on with you one-on-one
to finish polishing up your skills before you begin your job search. The type of post-
advanced reports you receive will depend on your progress to date. Usually one or two
additional post-advanced CDs is sufficient for you to master these difficult reports.
Sometimes it may take a little more, sometimes a little less. In any event, we tailor this
training to YOUR needs. The instructor who is working one-on-one with you will be
able to tell you more about what you will need to be able to pass employers’ tests. We
may even give you some practice final exams to work on.
Once you’re approved from there, prepare to take your Final Exam. Just follow the
instructions online and set up a date with us. We email you everything you need to do
the Final Exam at a specific date and time of your choosing. It is timed, but you are
allowed to use your references. Just follow the instructions and you’re almost there!

Time to Transcribe!
Now that you are ready to transcribe, let us help you get organized and ready to type.
You should create 6 folders on your own computer's hard drive. Here are instructions:
1. Find the folder on your hard drive entitled My Documents. (If you do not have this
folder then, create one.) (On your desktop in an open space, right click with your mouse.
Choose the folder option. Name it My Documents.)
2. Open the My Documents folder
3. In an open area right click with your mouse, choose New, then Folder.
4. Make 6 different folders and name them:
BMT Original (Beginning Medical Transcription)
BMT Corrected
Surgery Original (Intermediate Medical Transcription)
Surgery Corrected
AMT Original (Advanced Medical Transcription)
AMT Corrected
As you complete each transcribed report, click the transcript key (the gold key at the top
of your toolbar), use the highlight function to illuminate your errors.
Be sure to analyze each and every error
Then go to File, Save As, and save the report to your hard drive in the folder that you
created for your original transcripts.
It is important how you name your files when you save them. Name each file starting
with the specialty, report type and report number. For example, one specialty in the
Beginning Medical Transcription program is Dermatology. The first report is a chart
note and the second report is a letter. So, when you go to save your report using the Save
As feature, you would do it this way:
Example: Dermatology chart note 1
Example: Dermatology letter 2
By naming your files in this manner and putting them in the proper folder, you will know
what the last report you transcribed was. Another benefit of keeping two main folders
(one with your original attempts and one with your corrected reports) is that you can see
how much better you have become as you move through the transcription portion of the
course, and you will have a set of clean transcripts to refer to when you begin working as
a medical transcriptionist.
Copyright 2016 MT ACC All Rights Reserved Page 92
IMPORTANT: To get the MOST out of these reports, it is IMPERATIVE that you
follow these instructions exactly. Since you will have keys available to you for these
reports (for all except the exams) it is important that you do NOT transcribe with the keys
open in front of you. TO DO THIS WILL AFFECT YOUR TRANSCRIPTION
ABILITY IN THE LONG RUN. You need the listening, relistening and researching
skills that you will be performing as you do these reports. You must do the reports in this
matter to build the skills you need to become successful, pass our final exam, and pass
employer testing. When in doubt, ask.
Note: It is important to remember to mail each of the SUM CDs back to MTSoC by
insured, sturdy mail after you are done using them. We must have these CDs back and in
good condition before we can send you the next CD. You will be sending back one CD
at a time while you await the next one. The foot pedal can be returned at any time unless
you graduate the course in which case the pedal is yours to keep.
As of the time you enrolled, the address to mail these items back are:
MT School of Canada - MTACC
P.O. Box 1409
Gloucester VA 23061
(Please confirm this address via the Student Forum or our office prior to mailing. Thank
you.)
When mailing back, please include INSIDE the box:
1. Your Name and address
2. Your Student ID
3. Note or letter stating what you are returning and if you are expecting a new
shipment, etc.
Be sure your name and return address are on the OUTSIDE of the box.
There are a few things you can do in the meantime while you are still waiting which
don’t require the foot pedal and CD:
Skip ahead to Module 30 and do the Assignments.
Read the remainder of MT Techniques and Procedures.
Read the Book of Style cover to cover.
Test yourself on the box of flashcards. Your goal is 100% on these.
Congratulations! It’s now time to begin transcribing the Beginning SUM Medical
Transcription reports. Good luck and happy transcribing!

Module 29 – Advanced Medical Transcription
Welcome to the Advanced Medical Transcription module! You’ve come a long way.
These reports will be more difficult than what you have transcribed before. However, it’s
to your advantage to work really hard on each report and transcribe it to the best of your
ability. Developing the skill to transcribe difficult dictation is one that will make you a
very valuable and sought after medical transcriptionist.
Also, this on-line module will teach you how to use a word expander and show you a
system for creating abbreviations. It would be a good idea for you to create some
abbreviations using MS Word’s Auto-Correct feature (instructions below).
Try using some common abbreviations when you type like “tp” for patient. If you create
abbreviations using MS Word’s Auto-Correct, then you will want to be sure to type your
Advanced reports in MS Word.
IMPORTANT: To get the MOST out of these reports, it is IMPERATIVE that you follow these
instructions exactly. Since you will have keys available to you for these reports (for all except the
exams) it is important that you do NOT transcribe with the keys open in front of you. TO DO
THIS WILL AFFECT YOUR TRANSCRIPTION ABILITY IN THE LONG RUN. You need
the listening, relistening and researching skills that you will be performing as you do these
reports. To not do the reports in this matter will not build you the skills you need to become
successful, pass our final exam, and pass employer testing. When in doubt, ask.
Request your medical spellchecker at this time, and be sure your medical spellchecker has been
installed and is working properly. Follow the instructions below and in the Module and let us
know if you have any questions.

Suggestion: As you complete each report within each specialty, if you had more than 3
errors per report, because of the complexity of these reports, plan to re-type that report.
Note: There are no exams for the Advanced Medical Transcription reports and you will
be able to access the keys which are not updated with current BOS formatting. Please
contact your instructor if you have any questions or concerns about your work.

Transcribing the Mandatory Advanced Reports
As the final part of the course, we want to help you polish up your transcription and help
you correct any last-minute glitches or inconsistencies you have in your work. Please use
the following chart to help you keep track of what post-advanced reports (after the 3
initial SUM CDs and the ESL CD) you have worked on.
Each student will receive different reports which are geared towards any weaknesses in
an effort to strengthen these skills. These reports are considered advanced, even for
experienced MTs. Therefore, do not worry if you don’t get them 100% correct the first
time. We don’t grade these reports like we do the others. Basically we want to see how
you handle problems that arise.
The goal is for you to have mostly error-free work. This is a strong indication of how
well you’ll do for our Final Exam and subsequent employer testing, which is usually a
transcription practice of advanced reports. It is not necessarily indicative of what you’ll
be doing on a daily basis on the job. Just do the best you can and keep in touch with your
instructor who will be giving you extensive feedback. Above all, if you have questions,
now is the time to ask!

Preparing for the Final Exam
Your final exam will be “open book.” You will have a limited time to read the exam
instructions, download the reports, type, proofread, and email back the exam to our
office. The exam should be taken during normal business hours and should be pre-
arranged with our office.
The final exam will consist of 5-7 different reports of an average level of difficulty. You
will have a limited time to take the test and submit it for grading. This is plenty of time
for an average transcriptionist. A score of 90 or above is passing.
For this transcription final exam, you may use any of your reference sources including
medical reference books, on-line resources (except MT word boards), your textbooks, the
MTACC on-line modules, and resource library. However, you may not communicate
with or ask another person for assistance other than your instructor or our staff.
We suggest you take at least a couple of days to prepare for the final exam. Be sure you
get plenty of rest, and have drinks and snacks available to you.
When you are ready to take the final, please submit the following e-mail to
admin@MTACC.net :
In the subject line: Your full name, student ID # / Request for final exam.
In the body of the e-mail: Request entrance to the final exam section of the course. Tell
us what date and time you would like to take the test.
After sending this e-mail, we will contact you within 24 hours regarding giving you
access to the final exam on the date and time you requested.
When finished with your final exam, please email it as per the instructions. We will
contact you with your status usually within 2 business days.
Once your final exam is done and submitted, we will contact you with your results. Upon
passing, you will have earned a beautiful certificate, ready for framing and proof of all
your hard work. Please allow up to 2 weeks for receipt of your certificate.
