"Never waste money and time with kreiger you will never see any CRA graduated from kreiger they are making money from you if you need to join ask them to give you field experience or internship and if they are willing to do so ask them in written, or pay once you get field internship. indeed kreiger reputation is not good"

Exactly the same story.I have just sent an e-mail to EspoirBridge enquirying...

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."

Re Espoirbridge--they never answer. There is no extension for Ms. Williams. Their English is embarrassing to say the least. After I expressed an interest in a supposed position I got tons of spam for CRA classes. Mind you, I am a health professional with a masters. I've also been in industry for over 9 years. It's really sad that they take advantage of people in this economy. Predators to say the least and shame on them.

Hi All,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 $1100, 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
