There were 11 pages of comments on this forum. What happened? Did Kriger threaten this forum too???

I am so grateful to have found this thread as I was contemplating a course with them but finding that they seemed to have an "uncanny connection" with each other.  This was most evident when I submitted an application to Kriger for a scholarship and within seconds an email "magically" appeared in my inbox from EspoirBridge before I even received the automatic confirmation from Kriger.  Bear in mind that I had not mentioned EspoirBridge in my scholarsip application at any point!!!  Very interesting!Also I do have a certification and some limited research experience but the letter was written as though it were a form letter and reiterated comments about how I had "no experience."   Smells very funny---

Kriger gives a chance to foreign graduates and this is the bottom line. You get a degree and get help to obtain a decent job. It is an honest help and is more than welcome.Start counting how many people complain about Kriger and how many people support Kriger. Simple math.

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.

I too took the Kriger CRA course and found it quite informational. It's just landing a job as entry level that's so dang hard. Yet, how do you get the experience w/o 1st starting at the entry level!!! Someone I talked to at Espoir Bridge actually had Ms. Stewart at Cereprotec call me. I emailed/faxed all they needed and was sent via email the Protocol for the Phase-IIa trials for Cereprotex. Then, have sent a few messages to them and now have heard nothing for 2 years! I think funding is the main issue here.

if bruce threatens is continuing to threaten people, i suggest we alert the press...yes the press...if bruce was smart, he would address these issues, answer our questions and problems instead of just banning post.

everyone alert the press about your concern, we have  a right to know the truth
