| Answer: All major metros & cities have medical transcription companies and training centers. Usually, established companies have a training program running to meet their requirements. They would basically train people and absorb them into their companies on successful completion of training.
There are companies that give you free training but require that you work for them for a couple of years to recover the training costs. In such cases, a contract of some sort would be involved. Others may charge a flat fee at the beginning of the training program, which may range anywhere from 15,000 to 30,000 Rs. This can be looked as an initial investment to get started in the field. Most successful candidates are able to recover this initial cost within 3-6 months of working.
The training period may range anywhere from 5 to 7 months. Its basically decided by the company involved in the training. It may be shorter than the range mentioned too. On an average, it is usually 6 months.
