Why would y'all mention these concerns on an obscure blog?  Why not with BBB or a state or fed attorny general? I checked Kriger out with Better Business Bureau and found no unresolved problems.  And the 3 resolved problems were all billing not content or ethics.  I'm not defending Kriger aka EspoirBridge aka IBPA aka Clinqua aka whatever (although the training they give is true if out-of-date) but if you have proof (I don't) then take it to the authorities so that fplks like me don't fall for this.By the way "Someone with a brain", you DO have to pay for a job - college or training (like KRC offers).

Shame on this organization.  I have received the same emails and promises, after reading these notes, I anticipate that I will get a pumped up email only to dumped later.  Does anyone have any suggestions how/where to find clinical research jobs?ali

it is all not about a certificate but i think this course really gives you a knowledge about a clinical research. it does not work the way that if you have theri certificate you could be 100% sure you got the job, but it is not that you loose if you have it! if anyone who does not have the knowledge about clinical research and has some money to invest is interested in this course should take it. i am happy with what i have learned from them!

^^^^^^^ I have read that exact same comment somewhere else, I think under their satisfied customer comments section or something. Really, even the part about failing the exam 3 times. This whole think is beginning to smell rotten.

Like most of you guys, I always get emails from EspoirBridge and an email from Cereprotec.  I was told to contact the number provided in the email, but the voicebox was always full.  In short, it was just a waste of time trying to call that number.

I have been thinking of registering online for the Kriger CRA certification course, but I have serious doubts if it can help me secure a CRA position in a clinic, hospital, or pharmaceutical company.  It's true that "testimonials" can be found on its website and on this blog as well, but still, those do not prove anything.  Since Kriger is operating a BUSINESS that sells certification programs, one should be wary of such claims.

I have repeatedly asked EspoirBridge about how I can successfully land a job as a CRA, and all their representatives can say is that I should take the certification course offered by Kriger Institute.  RED FLAG THERE!

It seems to me that EspoirBridge, Cereprotec, and Kriger work in a such a way as to entice those who'd like to enter this so-called lucrative industry to take the online course offered by Kriger, which keeps on emailing me with a promotional code to slice USD 780 off the actual online registration free.  It's 100% propaganda, let alone a SCAM.

The best way is to contact employers directly and ask them if they would accept such online certification programs, such as the one offered by Kriger Institute.  For those here who say that they have taken the program and have successfully landed a job somewhere, give us a fool-proof way to verify your claim.  That's all I can say for now!
