I also had a screening interview with Cereprotec at this number but then I received an email to contact them urgently cause they needed to fill out their positions and...obviously NOTHING.No answer by phone or mail...really weird.Someone is making FUN of us.

Like most of you guys, I always get emails from EspoirBridge and an email from Cereprotec. I was told to contact the number provided in the email, but the voicebox was always full. In short, it was just a waste of time trying to call that number.
I have been thinking of registering online for the Kriger CRA certification course, but I have serious doubts if it can help me secure a CRA position in a clinic, hospital, or pharmaceutical company. It's true that "testimonials" can be found on its website and on this blog as well, but still, those do not prove anything. Since Kriger is operating a BUSINESS that sells certification programs, one should be wary of such claims.
I have repeatedly asked EspoirBridge about how I can successfully land a job as a CRA, and all their representatives can say is that I should take the certification course offered by Kriger Institute. RED FLAG THERE!
It seems to me that EspoirBridge, Cereprotec, and Kriger work in a such a way as to entice those who'd like to enter this so-called lucrative industry to take the online course offered by Kriger, which keeps on emailing me with a promotional code to slice USD 780 off the actual online registration free. It's 100% propaganda, let alone a SCAM.
The best way is to contact employers directly and ask them if they would accept such online certification programs, such as the one offered by Kriger Institute. For those here who say that they have taken the program and have successfully landed a job somewhere, give us a fool-proof way to verify your claim. That's all I can say for now!

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 what I got the Espoir Bridge. These guys are really idiots, they keep sending me the same e-mail regarding registering for Kriger's CRA even if I already told them I completed the course. Gues how many times they sent this e-mail? At least 15-20 times. Just read how they do advertising for Kriger. By the way, the last phrase is really STUPID.
Hello ,
I hope you are doing well. Please use this e-mail: info @ espoirbridge.com - I review it more frequently.
Let me tell you more about getting a job of clinical research associate just to make sure we are on the same page.
It is extremely difficult to talk to employer if the candidates don't have clinical research experience and/or training.
If you are determined to pursue with CRA career path, I would strongly recommend you to obtain GCP / CRA certificate through training and certification program, if you didn't do it in the past. There are many clinical research associate programs available on the internet. Very few of them include practical part.
If you ask me, I'd recommend KRGI Training program: http://www.krgi.org/training/ and this is because:
1. It is, apperently, the largest CRA training institution in the world 2. They have an internship included in the program that adds up to your CRA experience and they provide job references. 3. They are recognised by The International Biopharmaceutical Association and tuition fees are partialy covered through this organization. Here is an application form:
(If you decide to apply - use our institution ref number - "EspoirBridge - code CR12" as a referring recruiter, this will make it more plausible that you get a good percentage of coverage.)
I have placed many of KRGI grads, so it is natural for me to be a strong proponent of this program.
Usually this training takes 6-8 weeks to complete. But it is totaly self-paced program, and they issue a password for 3 months, that can be extended later.
This is on-line training, and there is nothing wrong with that.

if bruce threatens is continuing to threaten people, i suggest we alert the press...yes the press...if bruce was smart, he would address these issues, answer our questions and problems instead of just banning post.
everyone alert the press about your concern, we have a right to know the truth

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