PRC Cancels Board exams scheduled in March&April 2020

The Professional Regulation Commission on Wednesday announces the cancellation of all scheduled Licensure exams in the month of March and April 2020.

Reason for the Cancellation of the Board Exams

The announcement of cancellation is to ensure the safety of the examinees and employees of the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) amid the Corona Virus.

President Rodrigo Duterte signed the Presidential Proclamation No. 922 dated 8 March 2020 declaring a state of public health emergency throughout the country. The Department of Health (DOH) and the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Disease (IATF) also recommend to prohibit mass gatherings.
