Contact you local PD or Federal Bureau of Investigation, or in Canada, the RCMP. What I think is happening here is as follows: EspoirBridge (and maybe others) advertise high paying clinical research associate jobs for companies such as Cereprotec, Pharmalef Developments (and maybe others). These companies have been advertising jobs since last year. When you apply to these jobs, EspoirBridge gets you excited first advertising "no experience needed" and "entry level", but then they back track and tell you need the KRIGER CRA course. And that's how they make their money.

Why do they do it? imagine, if only 300-400 people apply for the job posting (but these jobs are advertised world-wide, so many more will), and let's say only 50% take the course, that's over $200,000 profit. Do this a couple times a year, and you're a millionaire.

THIS IS DEFINATELY SOUNDS LIKE A FRAUD.

Hello there:
I have been following the discussion and would like to reflect on my experience with Kriger. The CRA course offered by Kriger is very helpful in getting in depth knowledge of clinical research, GCP and practical application of theoretical knowledge during the clinical trials. The flexible arrangement of the course allowed  me, working  full tim,  to succeed.  The final exam is very comprehensive and tests all the areas necessary for the professional to know and function in the field of clinical research. I had to attempt three times before successfully completing final exam. It was not easy and it was a real test of my knowledge. All the material, sources and articles available to students throughout the course are excellent! The projects require practical application of possessed theoretical information. Communications with the instructors, always in a timely way and individualized to specific needs of a student, are very valuable as a source of learning as well.
Overall, I am very satisfied with the course offered by Kriger and I am making use of it, working as a nurse.

No one by the name Bruce Kriger lives in Ontario, Canada. I looked it up on 411.ca. However, Bruce kriger lives in San Diego California on 4370 La Jolla Village Drive San Diego, 92122-1249 the same address that is provided by Clinqua Clinical Trials, Inc posing as a hiring company.

BRUCE = KRIGER = ESPOIRBRIDGE = CLINQUA = FRAUD, COMPLETE SCAM

Shame on this organization.  I have received the same emails and promises, after reading these notes, I anticipate that I will get a pumped up email only to dumped later.  Does anyone have any suggestions how/where to find clinical research jobs?

You will never get any job from these people.
They are the expert cheating and robbing company 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.
