I took a certification course near me which only took about 3-4 months (2x/week). But you can go to
http://www.aamt.org
website and pull up a list of qualified schools/programs for training.
I found you want to have a good background in medical terminology, good medical and drug dictionaries on hand and to any books or information on a specialized field that interests you. (Oncology, Gastroenterology, Cardiology, etc.)
Good luck!

I don't do medical transcription, but I do work at home in the health care field. I really enjoy my career and I would be happy to share details. The company is awsome and offers 401k, benefits and is even a bbb member and member of the US Chamber of Commerce. What I do is mostly on the computer. If you are the sort of person who enjoys helping others maybe it would work well for you.
