Antiguans sign up for medical transcription industry

Scores of young Antiguans turned out yesterday at the Multi-Purpose Cultural & Exhibition Centre to obtain first-hand information in relation to the Antigua and Barbuda Investment Authority’s (ABIA) Medical Transcription project that is to come on stream shortly.
