First, I got an email from Espoirbridge asking to confirm email. Next,I got an email from a supposed recruiter Amanda Bale from Clinqua Clinical Trials, Inc. After a few minutes,I got another email from Kriger offering training at a discounted price. I spoke to Amanda Bale she said I was the perfect candidate for the study except that the company needed CRA training which would be partly paid by the company.I asked her for the no of the training company and she gave me a no and asked me to speak to Angela or Julie.If a company is interested in you they provide the training. Also,when I asked her the location of the employment she said I'd be working from a home office. I spoke with Angela and she said that the discount price was 900 and I might have to pay 450 USD. All this info was suspicious and so I did the reverse look up on the address of the company,4370 La Jolla Village Drive
San Diego, 92122-1249; and it turned up 100 people, one of which was Bruce Kriger. I also did reverse lookup on the no of the company and guess what, it is a landline in Rancho Bernardo, California not Sandiego as the email claimed. So this whole thing is a scam. I looked up the better business bureau of San Diego and Clinqua is not registered. I was lucky enough not to pay a cent to these people and I hope that other people will run into this forum and not fall into their TRAP.

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.

I have been trapped by Kriger with repeated phone calls from Cereprotec and Espiorbridge Recruiters saying that they find my resume good for the career in clinical research.
Then they have given couple of people assignment to contact me few times on my cell phone and pretending that it is preliminary interview.
Then someone from their Huntsville, Ontario office has called me for my payment information.
Unfortunately I have paid USD1600.00 for the online course of clinical research certification with ICH GCP certification.
These people are so smart that they even made contract with ACRP foundation to make every Kriger graduate to register for ACRP membership for the first year. This is also make me completely idiot as ACRP later on told me that the organization never accept or even acknowledge the certification from Kriger.
So, my USD1600.00 went down the drain.
Then, I sent them a strong email regarding this scam, as I was getting an email from Espoirbridge, Cereprotec and IBPA saying that there is a position of CRA in Phase I clinical trial. You have ot do the course from KRGI.
These people cheat, and one of the number one fraud organization in cheating variety of individuals on internet. Do not respond to their emails. Just report it to scam busters.

Many thanks to all of you for taking the time to post your comments regarding this obvious SCAM.  I too have been contacted repeatedly by EspoirBridge with job postings; and I have interviewed with both Cereprotec and Pharmalef, thus with no avail.  Eventually, I was referred to take the training from Kriger with the assistance of a scholarship that left me with a balance of $1500.00 to pay out-of-pocket.  Then I began to really think.....NO WAY.  Yes, I totally agree....we need to report them for running a SCAM from Canada on American citizens.

Hello, I have been contacted by KRC/IBPA/ClinQua few times reagrding the openings and I have been getting the invitations for the training for probably 3 years now. I have been considering doing a training with - which (considering there scholarship) occurs to me as not very expensive - thats is about how much it costs at Universities (I currently work for one of the major university in Chicago and 3 day training is $1200). However this blog does bring concern about the validity and employment opportunities after the training are minimal if they exist at all. I am currently waiting for the call from Gemma Garnett- there admissions officer - will keep you updated.
