The correct choice is the third one.
CMT (Certified Medical Transcriptionist) is the advanced/expert credential; RMT (Registered Medical Transcriptionist) is an entry‑level credential that demonstrates the essential skills needed to work as a medical transcriptionist. Many transcriptionists begin with the RMT and later pursue the CMT after gaining experience and meeting the CMT requirements.
Note: certifying bodies and credential names have changed over time (and requirements/availability can vary by organization and country), so check the current AHDI Certification Institute (or your local certifying body) for up‑to‑date details.
