"We don't just train out students to become employees, but we prepare them as well to eventually become entrepreneurs by enabling them to offer medical transcription services from home."
It was in 2001 when the idea of putting up MTC academy came up. He thought of putting up a school that would train medical transcriptionist. A medical transcriptionist are people who transcribe medical reports by producing a hard copy of doctor-patient consultations that are digitally recorded. But it was established in 2003. It took more than a year and a half to develop its own curriculum. They partnered with an American firm to develop the program which they later offered as an online course participated by students from all over the world. When the program went well they opened their Aurora Boulevard, Quezon City branch. And they were touted as the first and the largest TESDA recognized medical transcription school in the country because of their comprehensive and internationally acclaimed MT curriculum and their having the most number of corporate partners for actual MT industry on the job training.
Their first franchise opened in Cavite City in June 2004, and after they've been opening an average of two franchise every month.They implemented the country's first central profiling system, patterned after the AAMT Certified Medical Transcription Board Examinations. In November 2005 they partnered with Innovaquest, to allow students who graduated under MTC's new profiling and testing system to find employment at any of InnpvaQuest's 12 production centers throughout the United States.
"We make sure that all our graduates are competent. When they work, medical "transcriptionists" represent the whole Philippine workforce, so if they make mistakes, the industry's credibility suffers."
