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

I received a email indicates for interview with the following address.

Sandra Stewert, HR Manager

i tried many times to call the above number , unable to reach

613/686 5745 is a current telephone number. Can you tell me is it real one or not?

Well Done Robert. Please go ahead, call the Secretary of State in NY. I am with you. See that poor guy Gurdeep, calling Cereprotec since morning.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE???  Yes, I'm out of work and have been applying everywhere and I started getting e-mails from EspoirBridge Recruiters.

The FIRST TIME I saw them trying to refer me, with their courteous discount, I knew this was a scam.  How?  SIMPLE.  What they were doing was blatantly unethical.  I can't believe anyone sent hundreds or thousands of dollars to these people when a little common sense and research would have proven they were scammers.  the only reason they exist is because people are stupid enough to fall for it.  Simple rule everyone is told and should know.  YOu don't have to PAY to get a job.  If you do, RED FLAG.  Come on people, wake up.  I bet for every one person that admits giving these thieves money, their are hundreds who keep quiet... minus thousands of dollars.

yes, this is what I was thinking too. no one invited kriger here or on other forums. we should start by sharing e-mail addresses or ids for yahoo messenger for the beginning. it is very frustrating to enter on forums where you are supposed to get info and to deal with people who just come to spy and intimidate people. if they have so much time, they should use it in a clever way. e.g. they should focus on providing good quality courses (without hundreds or even thousands of mistakes!)and not on spying people on forums. or at least get a life.as long as the courses are of very poor quality and therefore the certificate and the letter of reference) are not accepted my anyone the problem will persist. but I really don't think he gets the idea

So now I have read all of the comments about the fact that most of these companies are scams and I am wonder what probably others are... WHERE CAN I GET TRAINING TO BE A CRA??? I have applied for positions that ask for what seems like minimal experience, and no response. I find tons of openings on Medzilla for CRA's, but I must be a total loser, because I don't get even a "you suck, but thank you for applying" email. I have been a RN for 20 yrs, have my BSN and did about a years work as a CRA 12 yrs ago for a tiny research institute.
I would love to find a job as a CRA and work my way up to being home based and have a stable job! I know it won't happen over night, but I need help finding out how to start the entire process. I keep hitting brick walls because no one wants to hire and train you, and no one wants someone without experience!! It's a catch 22, which is so frustrating I want to scream!!

Can anyone shed some light on what to do? Thank you for anything you have to offer!
