I think it would be an interesting career. I have heard of people working from home doing this. Are there schools to attend? Do you learn about it on line? What credentials are required?

Yes you do need legal background due to the terminology. You can also do general transcription and a lot of transcription companies only use home based typists and outsource all work to them. I actually work from home doing mostly transcription work. You need top typing skills and a great command of the English language and proper equipment set up at home. Check out link and then read the rest of the website for so much more information and education. There is even a typing course online you can take on the virtual assistant training/education page.
