Hi All,I am just trying to send out a message about how Kriger institute and/or Espoir bridge consultants are a big bogus... They have material ( I am not even sure which is up to date)on line and by making you pay $1100, they grant you access to that material.They promise resume writing , job placement, towards that they send you couple of generally advertised positions..You must be wondering why this is bogus... B'caz at the end of each chapter there will be a question, you do research and send in the answer, immediately followed by your answer they send you another answer (auto reply mode) and they never correct your answer not they give you feed back..It gets better listen to this, there are topics like CRF (Clinical report forms) and absolutely what they have what in reality they look like are completely different...I am so desperate for my money that  I even want to go to court and get my money back..But at least if you are in the market for a good  CRA certification program, all I can advise you is not to go with Kriger and don't get cheated by their website as i did

Hi, Yes I heard from Pharmaleaf too and Cerebrotec. they both offerred me jobs if I took their course through Kriger Research, Then I could not get through to them when I called about the jobs. the voicemail was always full. The clerk who worked for Cerebrotec and keriger Reseach ended up being the same person! Espoirbridge was also conneted too somehow.

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.

You will never get any job from these people.
They are the expert in cheating and robbing to the public over the internet.

People should also be wary of the following:
http://medicaldevicesnews.com/
http://regulatoryaffairstoday.com/

These websites are very similar with some links to a "real" website concerning industry news, however other links are CLEARLY slanted toward Kriger, Cereprotex, ClinProxy, ClinQua, etc. An independant repubitable biotech news site would not try to drive its viewers toward certain companies, it would simply present jobs and related information. For a "real" website check out http://www.biospace.com/

I did a search for Linkedin of Clinproxy and only two people showed up...very suspicious for a worldwide company.

Please dont fall for these antics...I have worked for clinical organizations  for 10 years at Merck, Hoffman, to name a few...If a company is interested they will provide you with training for free. Or at least assist you finanically for any "specialized" training. I agree one should check out www.socra.org, www.acrpnet.org, and www.scdm.org for getting a start to getting into the clinical industry or further advancement. Not this Kriger scam.

I have received dubious job offers from Cereprotec, Biorole, Pharmalef, EspoirBrigde and Clinqua. They all belong to Krieger research and eventually refer you to go take a course with them. They don't care if you already have a good and solid education or experience in the field. It is strange that for all of these companies, after they ask you to call them to discuss the posiytion or for a phone interview, not even a single soul is in these so-called "reputable" companies to take your call; and no one ever call you back. Espoirbridge even referred me to the IBPA which strangely offered me a scholarship that can only be used at Krieger for the CRA certificate program. I read another forum on indeed and found that Krieger research and its associates are all dupes! I took the Clinical Research Program at George Washington, which is more expensive, but very much worth it. Besides you can't go wrong with an established institution. Forget about Krieger, Biorole, Pharmalef, Espoirbridge, Cereprotec, Clinqua and the so many other aliases that this phony people can adopt.
Good luck!
