*Don’t misrepresent yourself or your colleagues!*

   The term used for people who take and pass the TypeWell Transcribing
   Course is “qualified,” not “certified.”  That difference in terms may seem
   minor, but it is actually very important to maintaining professionalism in
   the area of communication access services.

   For a sign language interpreter to become certified, he or she must take
   and pass the interpreting certification tests.  The requires several years
   of experience, then sitting for a written test and then for a performance
   test.

   There is not, at this time, a procedure for becoming a certified
   transcriber or speech-to-text provider.  *Do not list on your résumé that
   you are a “certified TypeWell transcriber.”  *Instead, use the words
   “qualified” or “experienced,” or just use “TypeWell transcriber.”


   What a potential employer needs from you is proof that you have completed
   the TypeWell Transcribing Course.  The way to do that is to sign into
   your online TypeWell account <http://typewell.com/signin.form> (the same
   one you used during your TypeWell course work), and scroll to the bottom of
   the Course History page.  There is a place there for you to request TypeWell
   to send your official Course History to a potential employer.

   The Course History is similar to a college transcript.  It shows that you
   completed the Course, when you completed it, and what grade you got.  Just
   type in the email address of the person there who has requested confirmation
   of your TypeWell qualification.  TypeWell will automatically mail the info
   to that person.
