About the TypeWell Educational History Page

The Educational History page is the official training record of all TypeWell courses and grades completed by an individual. The most recent entries are shown first.

EMPLOYERS: Always view a transcriber's official training record on the TypeWell website

The transcriber must sign in to their online account, click on the History tab, and complete the section titled Sending this information to someone. There, they'll enter your email address so our system can email you directly.

You’ll receive an email that looks like this:

Click the link in that email to view the official TypeWell Educational History for that transcriber. This record shows all TypeWell-sanctioned courses and professional development completed, the level of services the transcriber is qualified to provide, and any restrictions on software use.

• If the record shows “REFRESHER COURSE RECOMMENDED,” the transcriber may continue providing services but is strongly encouraged to complete a Refresher Course.
• If it shows “REFRESHER COURSE REQUIRED,” the transcriber is no longer qualified to provide communication access services or use TypeWell software until successful completion of the Refresher Course.

Two options for reinstating a transcriber's service qualification

Transcribers whose qualification has lapsed may reinstate it by either:

1. Completing the TypeWell Refresher Course, which takes an average of 2 months, OR
2. Testing out of the Refresher Course through a remote Skill Consultation.

If the Skill Consultation shows that the transcriber’s skills do not meet TypeWell’s standards, they must complete the Refresher Course.

If you have questions about a transcriber’s qualifications, please contact us.
