“CareerStep’s training was so phenomenal that it was like picking up a block and putting it right in a square peg. I didn’t miss a step.”
Elizabeth Morgan-Switzer, New York
Professional Medical Coding and Billing
“I could complete my training when my daughter was sleeping at night, during naptime, and whenever I could. I have been able to be there for my daughter. . . , so I just am very, very grateful for CareerStep.”
Eva Cardenas, Arizona
Medical Administrative Assistant
“At first, I was skeptical about signing up because I had never taken an online course and had a one-month-old baby. CareerStep honestly made it really easy for me.”
Tabitha Sasenbury, New York
Medical Administrative Assistant
“When I took the CareerStep course, I wanted to work at a doctor’s office, not have to work nights and weekends anymore. I also wanted to earn a higher income than my other jobs. I succeeded in all three.”
Mari Hellriegel, South Dakota
Medical Transcription Editor
“People kept saying, how did you learn how to do this so well? And I went, well, I went to a really good school, and I happen to really like what I do.”
Daniel Brenneman, South Dakota
Medical Transcription Editor
“I actually got my first job before my CareerStep certificate came in the mail. My boss couldn’t believe I was able to do what I did with nine months of online study.”
Tracey Oaks, Utah
Medical Transcription Editor
“The highlight of working in this career field is my day can be anything I want … If I want to work at 3:00 in the morning because I can't sleep, I do.”

How CareerStep Works

CareerStep’s online training programs are accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and you can complete the courses at your own pace. Different programs have different components (and different outcomes).

Once you've selected your program, we help you understand what it will cost and help you afford it—because we want you to get on track for professional and financial success as soon as possible. Payment plans and financial assistance are available to those who need it.

After you're done with your program, you’ll take a final exam designed to help you pass your national certification exam. Test anxiety? Don’t stress—we offer instructor-led exam consultations, and in most cases you can take the final exam up to three times. Once you pass your national certification exam, you’re all set for your new career.
