I would really like to agree with the bunny bunny,If you have a MSc or BA in any health science (MD,Pharmacy,Dentist,Registered Nurse) or even microbiology, molecular biology etc. you can become a CRA if you are persistent enough . Training programs are more or less a smart way for getting "experience" even if you don't have it. But if you manage to enter to a CRA position you will see that every normal CRO or Pharma company has their own training program. I would recommend (for the Europe) British recruiters specialized in the field of Clinical Research .(Barrington- James ,Square One Pharma,Hays Pharma,Talentmark etc...). Also make yourself VISIBLE , make LinkedIn profile , put your CV to Pharmiweb and similar Job hunting sites for Pharma industry.Take a GCP cource , there is a dozen online GCP courses. Apply for the CTA and then progress to CRA . Know the EU Directives for Clinical Trials, GCP, FDA regulation,   familiarize yourself with the Clinical research terms (can be easily found on the internet), join the free forums for the clinical research. Most important, believe in yourself and never give up. During a year there are several job opportunities in every country for a person without previous CRA experience ( I worked in Quality Assurance and after a year I started working as a CRA). Find someone who is already working as a CRA.Therefore, it is really important to be VISIBLE on the internet if you want to be notified immediately about new job openings.Good luck.

"I have completed the Kriger Course. I do not recommend it. Although there are tons of information, the content was disorganized. Lots of grammar and spelling mistakes made it hard to understand the point at times. There was no way to print out online content (for reading whenever you feel like), many employers do not recognize the projects you do, and finally, you do not get feedback to the assignments you send in. If you do have a question, it takes a couple of days for a reply, and the replies i received were usually one-word answers"

I recieved an email from this company stating that they have a job for me. When I call it goes directly to voicemail and I am unable to leave a message. Is this real?
