AAPC - Advancing the Business of Healthcare

Which is best, online training for medical coding or classroom training?

Online training programs allow students to achieve certification quicker than attending a college. You can be career-ready in only 4 to 12 months. Online certification training programs are also more affordable than a 2- or 4-year degree program. Learning medical coding online is an effective training option to prepare for the certification employers require.

In comparison to classroom training, an online medical coding education offers the greatest flexibility to study where and when you want. For people with jobs, families, or other responsibilities, online training is the best way to train and maintain work-life balance.  

When considering online vs. classroom training options, you may want to train in-class if you learn best in a classroom setting. Classroom training will ensure you’re well prepared to sit for your certification exam and achieve your goals. AAPC offers classes in convenient locations throughout the USA. Search for a medical coding class near you.
