I also called by e-mail and phone both EspoirBridge and Cereprotec and I got no answer back in one week!

I am really suprised that I did not any job offer for sure (just a few interviews, some just prescreenings). If there are so many clinical jobs and there is "lack of professionals" (as Espoir Bridge claims), how comes I applied to 200 jobs and got only wasted time? This is frustrating and revolting.

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.

I've been 'in touch' with espoirbridge. They emailed me a job listing for 'cereprotec'. I was pretty uninspired by the cereprotec website. I was less than impressed by the fact that I couldn't even find an address for the company. A call to espoirbridge yields only a busy signal. We're either dealing with a scam, or a severe lack of professionalism. I'm pissed off either way. Buncha time burglars.

Gina, sorry to hear about your situation. Try looking for research coordiantor positions with hospitals, CROs, biotech/pharmaceutical companies and then work your way up to CRA. It is very difficult to get a CRA position without 2 yrs experience in a similar capacity. I also think the economy is affecting recruitment. Goodluck and don't give up!

Greg, did the course helped you in some way? I found this forum after i already registered with Kriger and normaly paid the cours and now i'm kind of feeling stupid and try to think that maybe it will be helpfull in some way. anybody finished the cours and finded it usefull? Thanks

I got an email from them too. Sounds like a scam, they asked me to call for an intervie, however their mail box is always full.
