What is Transcription - WPM?

It depends on the context (whether referring to handwritten or typed). Typically transcription is "something written, especially copied from one medium to another, as a typewritten version of dictation".

An example of "Transcription-WPM" could be referring to how many words per minute you could transcribing someone's notes from a meeting into legible format, either handwritten or typed. Transcribing doctor's notes, etc. It really varies depending on the field. Good luck!
