"...Connections or education don't matter too much in the regulatory world--only experience matters. So get some experience by working in one of the less desirable jobs such as working for a CRO*.
If you can't get a job as a writer, take some other job in the CRO and transfer over when they'll let you. Always let them know you want to be a reg writer (once you're in)."
Hope this helps...

I see al lot of opportunities for regulatory writing. I have been writing for medical communications companies mostly. I started by working for a med comm company in NY. After moving to San Francisco, I joined AMWA and sent my resume everywhere. I was then contacted for freelance jobs randomly - sometimes months or yeas later.
How to you break into regulatory writing? Are there courses or a certificate program you recommend? Is it impossible to get a job in regulatory writing without such a background? I did get such a job offer, more than a year ago, but I couldn't take it - my son was born days before the start date.
