Posted: Jul 21, 2012

I was  hired at a job and told I'd have paid training for 12 hours.  We had trouble getting equipment set up for the first day and it ended up 1 day's training but being paid for the whole time.  But I'm having a horrible time learning this job, essentially learning by trial and error and on my own.  I believe after the equipment was set up, training should've started then.  I had 100% QA for 2 weeks but don't think that was enough because of learning all on my own.  Maybe they really thought I could do it on my own, but the corrections they had to make, I don't believe I was ready.  For every report I typed, I spent 3-4 times more looking through papers to find an answer.  That's even what I was told that 1 day's training would be enough, that all I needed to do was read the papers I was given.  I'd have rather had the 12 hours and this wouldn't be so hard now.  Now to decide whether to stay or keep looking for something else.

Paid Training - Me Too

I had the same thing happen to me, but it wasn't the equipment, it was the account they said I was going to be working on and then they changed it and gave me an account I had absolutely no experience with. I was having all kinds of problems with the demo stuff, which we don't get paid for and this snippy CCM calls me and literally chews me out for not doing it right. She kept saying, "can't you see it on the screen?" Well if it was there, I guess I would have seen it. What happened, they made the mistake and I had to redownload the program. THEIR (%)&%& mistake, not mine. Got it fixed and was just fine. NEVER, did she acknowledge that they were wrong and not me. What a B! Run from this company, they are the worst and the CCM (company created monsters) are horrible too. No need to replay and say yours is great, I have heard that all before. My experience, was the worst and that company should be run out of business. They are going to eventually send it all to India anyway. That is their goal. They could care less about MTs in this country!!!!

PAID TRAINING?
May 19, 2011

Regarding the videos about the TW update - was told it would take 5 minutes - then looked at MQ Central and saw an explanation about watching the videos and then sending a code to supervisor.  Does this mean this is paid training?  Anyone know?  CCM did not send email saying it was paid.  Thanks. ...


Are We Paid For That HIPAA Training?
Feb 13, 2015

Are we supposed to be paid for that mandatory HIPAA training module thing? If so, do we get paid for that time only, or do we also get paid for the time we took the test at the end? And what do we clock in under Webclock for it?   I emailed my TSM about this 2 days ago, but big suprise, she never replied.   Thanks! ...

Training To Be An MT
Nov 15, 2009

I am a mom of 3 boys with a lot of secretarial experience.

I am in the process of applying to Everett Community College for their certificate. I would love opinions from current MTs regarding your opinion on beginning this career. Is it still a good option?

Training For 7.1
Aug 07, 2012

About 6 weeks back I finished the training for 7.0.  We were then told that go live was August 20, and that we had to do new training.  I just did it.  Ladies and gents, I am sorry to say I am scared to death.  First of all, I have ADD, and it is hard for me to understand things right away.  I am not stupid, but only a person with ADD understands what I am saying.  I am going to go over all the training again and again, as that is how I learn things (even in college ...

Who Is Training ASR??? Definitely Not The MT!
Jul 04, 2013

Every day ASR gets increasingly of base.  There are so many times when I have to sit and search each line looking for anything that remotely resembles what is being clearly dictated. It started out with maybe 35% accuracy before editing.  Now it barely makes 20%. It inserts phrases that were never dictated, apparently just because that dictator dictated that phrase at one time in the past on a different patient.  It is having fun with "ALLERGIES" now.  It started off only usi ...
