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

It's very clear that EspoirBridge is a SCAM.  The scam starts with a phony job posting for a clinical research position.  Once the scam artists receive your resume, you are then immediately being solicited to sign up for an incredibly expensive "training and certification program" in clinical research (with the implication that a well-paid job is waiting for you).  This so-called certification program is not recognized anywhere within the clinical research industry and is completely worthless.  

The KRC International website claims to have US business offices in many states, including in Seattle, WA.  In the US, in order for any corporate entity to do business in a state, each state requires a registration process, and such registration information is a matter of public record.  The State of Washington is no exception in that regard.  Neither Krieger International, nor Kriger Research Center Inc., nor KRC Inc. have any sort of registration with the State of Washington.

Furthermore, EspoirBridge, Kriger and Cereprotec websites have all been registered in less than two years by the same administrator. In other words, the so-called HR recruiter, the so-called professional certification provider, and the so-called biotech company where research is taking place and where your "future job" is waiting for you, are all concoctions from the same scam artists' imagination.  

The worst part of these scams, aside from costing job seekers potentially thousands of dollars they can ill-afford to spend, is wasting job seekers' time while preying on their desire for a well-paying job and vulnerable emotional state.

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!

I've been 'in touch' with espoirbridge. They emailed me a job listing for 'cereprotec'. I was pretty uninspired by the cereprotec website. I was less than impressed by the fact that I couldn't even find an address for the company. A call to espoirbridge yields only a busy signal. We're either dealing with a scam, or a severe lack of professionalism. I'm pissed off either way. Buncha time burglars.

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.

Hello, I have been contacted by KRC/IBPA/ClinQua few times reagrding the openings and I have been getting the invitations for the training for probably 3 years now. I have been considering doing a training with - which (considering there scholarship) occurs to me as not very expensive - thats is about how much it costs at Universities (I currently work for one of the major university in Chicago and 3 day training is $1200). However this blog does bring concern about the validity and employment opportunities after the training are minimal if they exist at all. I am currently waiting for the call from Gemma Garnett- there admissions officer - will keep you updated.
