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.

OMG. I can't believe i just take the time to read something about this company Kriger... It is suck!!!! I am currently taking the course and they offered me a job $60.000 annually as soon as i finish the course, but with the comments i realize that i should did this before, I pay the whole course hoping to get a job because I'm unemployed. This is very frustrating. I was so happy because I was thinking this was true. But i just remember this is to good to be true.

Thank you for this information, glad I took the time to further research this company; something did feel right after seriouslu considering paying for this course certification.  Truly appreciate your public service about this scam.

congratulations dude, I've read the comments and I tried to post one but I need password for it...1. A forum is for people to share their opinions with a specific company, both positive and negative. This negative comment does not have to be approved by a corporate bastard since it is not addressed to him and it is not his corporate website. If I say a took a specific CRA course and I did not like it since it was full with mistakes, redundant, without any logic and rationale and of very very poor  quality I just express an opinion. And it helps even the company, who may want to improve the quality of the course.2. If someone posts negative comments about a company, this reflects personal experience, and this is the very reason why people use forums and blogs. Of course, we assume honest individuals do that, not people from other companies who try to denigrate other companies (which I don't think it happens very often, only paranoid and very stupid people belive in "hidden agendas" and conspiration theories). But what such very stupid people don't realize is that by becoming histerical and behaving in a stalinist manner does not help, actually on the contrary.

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!

Oh man, I have the same story.  I got an 'urgent' email from Cereprotec, same address shown as Prasad's from India, talking about my 'application'.  I am nearly finished with Kriger, but still have to do the article submission and take the exam.  I have not applied for any CRA positions, so I don't know what they are talking about with the 'application' bit.  I will definitely be cautious.  Glad I decided to check out this company.
Thanks,
