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 $1600, 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

hithanku every one .i also got same mail frm espior actually i was abt to join this but after reading ur comments i dropped it

Guys,I am heartbroken,So this Espoirbridge,kriger thing is a huge scam.No doubt I applied to a lot of companies,but i didn't get a single call from anyone and I paid $1300 for the course.And now I think about it this Cliniqa thing is a big scam too.I was sent an e-mail saying that there as a immediate need for clinical research people and I kept calling the San Dieago number like a fool over and over again but nothing.What do I do now,all my hopes crashed.I dont know what to do.Where do I go from here.

Anute, if you curently work at a university, I would suggest the following: contact professors at the Department of medicine, health professions, Psychology/Neuroscience & Nursing to see if they have any research going on for which they need research assistants. You have better odds since you already work there.About training, I would recommend you volunteer a lot. You need practical experience. Just helping out in a clincial study for 1 month goes a long way. Check if your university has a centre for clinical research - they would have training programs each month on different aspects of clinical research b/c the professionals need to stay up to speed too. The programs are free, though registration is generally required since seats are limited.You only become a certified CRA after 2 yrs work experience. At this point, mentioning "CCRP or CCRA" on your resume will set you apart. Otherwise, you basically begin at an entry level position and work your way up.Lastly, be proactive! Tell everyone you know that you are looking for work in this field. Search job banks, use google, set up career alerts, send out resumes even when not sollicited. Make sure you target your search and apply for positions for which you qualify.

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!
