Our Story
Carrus (then called Career Step) was founded in 1992 by a stay-at-home parent who’d enrolled in a medical transcription correspondence course in hopes of expanding her career opportunities. When she realized the course’s potential to improve the lives of people like her, she decided to build a business that would make similar courses available to the masses.
In the decades since, Carrus has grown from a single medical transcription course to one of the nation’s most trusted online healthcare training and professional development providers. Carrus not only offers nationally recognized training and continuing education programs to individual learners, but it also partners with colleges, universities, and healthcare employers across the country.
Today, Carrus remains committed to helping people advance their careers and improve their lives as it strives to make the healthcare learning experience more accessible, efficient, and effective for everyone.
