I received an email for a CRA position today from the following company:ClinQua Clinical Trials Inc.4370 La Jolla Village DriveSan Diego, 92122-1249Tel.  (858) 605-1793www.clinqua.coma.bale @ clinqua.comUSAYes! I also received an email from the above company with same matter.They are the fraud people. They have robbed me for USD1600.00 through online course of certification of clinical research professional development. No job ever landed till today since I have completed the course in Aug.2008No organization, no company ever recognize the Kriger, IBPA.Be careful with these two names for any online material and enticement.

yes Kim, I am in the same situation. This is how some people make money, by selling hope and untruthful promises. Disgusting. I hope to go back to school soon and to get rid of this kind of people.

MAURICE

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 researchassociate just to make sure we are on the same page.It is extremely difficult to talk to employer if the candidatesdon'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 certificatethrough  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 toyour CRA experience and they provide job references.3. They are recognised by The International BiopharmaceuticalAssociation and tuition fees are partialy covered through thisorganization. Here is an application form:http://www.ibpassociation.org/app_forms/uk_form.php(If you decide to apply - use our institution ref number - "EspoirBridge - code CR12" as areferring recruiter, this will make it more plausible that you get a goodpercentage of coverage.)I have placed many of KRGI grads, so it is natural for me to be astrong proponent of this program.Usually  this training takes  6-8 weeks to complete. But it is totalyself-paced program, and they issue a password for 3 months, thatcan be extended later.This is on-line training, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Hmmmm.  I received an email for a CRA position today from the following company:

Didn't "bite" because the vagueness of the job description set off alarm bells, so did a search on better business bureau website and a few other places and this company did not show up anywhere.  Another scam??  Has anyone received something similar from this, "company"?

Hi, Yes I heard from Pharmaleaf too and Cerebrotec. they both offerred me jobs if I took their course through Kriger Research, Then I could not get through to them when I called about the jobs. the voicemail was always full. The clerk who worked for Cerebrotec and keriger Reseach ended up being the same person! Espoirbridge was also conneted too somehow.

They led me on and continued sending me emails then told me that they had good news.  A company in Chicago was interested in me but  I needed to take the online course first.  I'm in a very bad position as far as my living situation is concerned and lets just say I cried when I found out.  They gave me so much hope and then yanked it back away from me.
