Hmmmm.  I received an email for a CRA position today from the following company:ClinQua Clinical Trials Inc.4370 La Jolla Village DriveSan Diego, 92122-1249 Tel.  (858) 605-1793www.clinqua.coma.bale @ clinqua.comUSADidn't "bite" because the vagueness of the job description set off alarm bells, so did a search on better business bureau website and a few other places and this company did not show up anywhere.  Another scam??  Has anyone received something similar from this, "company"?

Well Done Robert. Please go ahead, call the Secretary of State in NY. I am with you. See that poor guy Gurdeep, calling Cereprotec since morning.

Yea, I had the same emails from Espior and Cereprotec. Actually I did spoke to someone on that number for an initial screening interview, where I was told that if shortlisted I would be contacted by March end. But than 2 days  nlater I got an email from Cereprotec asking that they urgently need to fill-up the positions and I need to call them immediately. But then I had the same story, voice mail is full and nobody replies to your email.

J, I got several calls after I completed the course.

The problem is that most companies ask for at least 1-2 years of experience and Kriger gives you only 6 months. It is a good start but it may not be enough (they need someone with a lot of experience since you are responsible for volunteers' safety) so what you can do is to work for 6 months in a different position, for example as Clinical Research Coordinator.

Under the law there activities are legal. Anyone in the US can open a university. There is more than 3000 universities in this country. You pay and take the course and they give you a certification. Now it the responsibility of everyone enrolling to check if the program offered is accredited by the state you live in. If you did not too bad for you and you cannot even sue them. You are only left with a piece of paper employer will probably will not recognize.

congratulations dude, I've read the comments and I tried to post one but I need password for it...



1. A forum is for people to share their opinions with a specific company, both positive and negative. This negative comment does not have to be approved by a corporate bastard since it is not addressed to him and it is not his corporate website. If I say a took a specific CRA course and I did not like it since it was full with mistakes, redundant, without any logic and rationale and of very very poor  quality I just express an opinion. And it helps even the company, who may want to improve the quality of the course.

2. If someone posts negative comments about a company, this reflects personal experience, and this is the very reason why people use forums and blogs. Of course, we assume honest individuals do that, not people from other companies who try to denigrate other companies (which I don't think it happens very often, only paranoid and very stupid people belive in "hidden agendas" and conspiration theories). But what such very stupid people don't realize is that by becoming histerical and behaving in a stalinist manner does not help, actually on the contrary.
