Just about everything I've learned about wound coding has been OTJ. It helps that I had a good mentor and one of my providers taught coding for an intern program for a previous employer.

Contexo offers a Wound Care Coding class that looks like it might be pretty good. Occasionally their classes go on sale, making them more affordable.

I think that Podiatry Today has some good information as well.
