Dragon Dictation Training
What is Dragon Dictation?
Dragon is speech recognition software and is quite accurate when you speak clearly. It is not, however, a transcriptionist. You will be editing your own dictation.
Dragon is used for large-vocabulary continuous recognition of natural speech. With Dragon, you can create documents quickly and easily with your voice, without being slowed by typing on your keyboard.

- Learning the basics in a classroom setting with a Dragon trainer. This class is approximately one hour long and you can register for classes in HealthStream. There is also an online eLearning course available in HealthStream. You can self-enroll from the Catalog tab by typing “Dragon”.
