Dear Future Student:
Career Step was founded in 1992 and started by offering a single training program in medical transcription. Because of the program’s comprehensive approach to medical transcription training—teaching students on files just like those they’ll encounter in the workplace—the program quickly became one of the most respected in the Allied Health industry.
Since then, Career Step has expanded its program offerings and moved all of its training entirely online. Every Career Step program is still designed, developed, and supported with the same commitment to high quality that we started with.
Dawnette, from Midwest City, Oklahoma, said, “When I enrolled, I thought that this was going to be a hard, lonely road. I was wrong. When I enrolled, I joined a team and gained a family. I was never alone. If I needed help or had a question, all I had to do was email student support or post on the forum. Everybody was so friendly and knowledgeable. They always gave you the feeling that they were only there for one reason—to see you succeed.”
At Career Step, we don’t measure success solely by graduation rates—success is helping each individual find, train for, and succeed in their chosen career path. Even though all of our programs are offered completely online, our students are never left on their own. We have built world-class support teams who work with each student and graduate to ensure that they each have the tools they need to graduate and find rewarding employment. We are focused on helping you achieve your educational and career goals.
Looking to the future, Career Step will continue to invest in the curriculum and technology that will allow us to expand the access our students have to different fields and improve their individual learning experiences. We are also committed to deepening our relationships with industry employers, ensuring that our programs prepare students for the current workplace. I invite you to learn how Career Step can help you train for a new career and change your life for the better.
Best wishes,
Michael S. Wilstead
President

- "I just have to say that Career Step has TRULY changed my life!! You work so hard for a 2- or 4-year college degree and then are left with no on-the-job experience and no employment when you've graduated. Yet with Career Step, I was able to complete the course in less than a year, had training that left me fully prepared and equipped, and was contacted by a recruiter a few days after graduating!" Read More Testimonials »
- "Before Career Step I was enrolled in another medical transcription program. After this first program, I started applying for jobs. I applied for about 3 months and never got past the transcription portion to be interviewed. Finally, feeling frustrated, I enrolled in Career Step. The program did take me more than a year to complete, but I got a job 2 weeks after graduation. This program prepare the student for the real world medical transcription positions. Anyone wanting to secure a job in the medical transcription field should study with Career Step. I wish I had gone through them the first time." Read More Testimonials »
- "I finished my training with Career Step just a month before my baby was born. I started looking for a job when he was four weeks old and was working when he was six weeks old. I love that my new career gives me the opportunity to stay home with my baby! I was impressed by how easy it was to find work once the employer knew I was trained by Career Step. With the help of this program, I was completely prepared for my new job. I have been recommending them to all of my friends. " Read More Testimonials »
- "I just got hired by a prestigious MT company. I graduated from Career Step 1 month and 12 days before. When I heard that honors graduates, on average, get jobs within a month of graduating, I was very skeptical. This sounded too good to be true. The fact is, Career Step is the main reason I got the job that I did. My new employers said they only hire from Career Step and one other MT program. They are very familiar with the quality of Career Step's training and do not even require testing if you graduated recently. " Read More Testimonials »
- "Overall, I was very pleased with everything that Career Step had to offer. I was attracted to Career Step because I am a military spouse, and I was looking for a new career that would be easy to transfer, as my family transfers from one base to another. . . . As a new graduate, I look forward to all the new opportunities that Career Step has opened up to me." Read More Testimonials »
- "I was always very skeptical when it came to taking courses online. I always felt that it would be better to be in a classroom environment, but when I started Career Step, boy did I get comfortable quick. I was amazed at how much support was there for me, and I sure did use it. The student support team was always there to listen to me and encourage me and help me get my mind back on track. . . . They helped me with anything and everything . . . WOW! Thank you so much, Career Step!" Read More Testimonials »

The national pass rate is around 67%—so I think that speaks to the quality of the course Career Step offers. " Read More Testimonials »
- "I was able to get a job within 3 weeks of graduating, which was largely related to the Career Step name on my resume.
