Licensure Examination for Teachers(LET) is given two times a year to education graduates. Successful examinees will be eligible to practice their profession and will acquire a license for teaching. It is held every March and September in different testing centers nationwide.
LET application has been easier thanks to the new portal that Professional Regulation Commission releases. It is now necessary to apply online before going to the PRC office. Check here on how to register in LERIS or the Licensure Examination and Registration Information System.
