kriger = espoirbridge

This is what Kriger and Espoir Bridge won't tell you"Hello All,You do not need course work or additional degrees, costing thousands of dollars, in order to break into clinical monitoring. A four-year degree in anything science related will be fine. I have a Ph.D. and wanted to get away from the bench but still get 'credit' for having a higher scientific education. I applied online at the big job websites and called for advice to local research organizations until I got a call back from the HR department of one of the largest CROs in the world. I took a lower-paying job as a trial assistant in exchange for the large company training me on everything I needed to know. I was promoted in ~half the usual time to the CRA role, get multple pay increases per year as well as bonuses, and have been monitoring for nearly 2 years. The key is applying to a large company that can afford the money to train you, avoid signing contracts, and starting at the bottom position. Don't tell the recruiter you 'love to travel', just be clear that you have no problem traveling 3-4 days/wk. You are not applying to be a professional tourist. Read industry magazines to learn the acronyms (CRA, CRO, IRB, DCF, IND, etc). This industry is doing very well and expansion at the large CROs is booming."this is from (not mine comment)http://www.indeed.com/forum/job/clinical-rese ... 784100?myst=150

SUSAN, what can we do to get our money back? did u pay through credit card?

Never mind.  Just looked back at previous messages and saw that Clinqua seems to be on the list of scammers.  Come to think of it, also received an email from Kriger with the same $600 special for CRA certification.Best to stick with the tried and true!

I agree with ?me?, where are other 11 pages of this forum, what's going on? Where are all the comments by J?I am in the same boat with dozens (or hundreds?) of job seekers who was asked to call and got ?mail box is full message?. Honestly I didn?t expect much after browsing through Cereprotec web-site...Few little things also alerted me like the fact that the other side of the line sounded quiet and not busy as I would expect. As well as Sandra?s last name was spelled differently in her e-mail address and electronic signature (Stewart/Stewert). Not very professional, isn?t it?I have read all the previous comments of this forum up to the end of the day on Monday, and I just wanted to express my respect to J. He or She seems to be a highly educated and knowledgeable person, with excellent logic and judgement, very polite and straight to the point (despite of all that personal offences that his opponents were using to shut him/her up, ex. ?go and find girl friend?). I believe comments like this are highly inappropriate and not related to the subject of discussion in any way. Thank you J, it?s mostly because of your input that I have read through all the discussion, and thank you for providing with valuable links and information.As for Mr. Krieger behaviour I am shocked that a head of large educational and research organisation, a writer, can be so rude and threatening. By the way somebody mentioned on this web-site or indeed.com, that 3 months of internship with Krieger CRO after graduation from Krieger institute can be qualified as 6 months of industry experience?  How this could be justified? Could anybody explain? Thank you.

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
