any comments re PRC=professional regulation commisson?

Civil service exam is the one you take to become a government employee.

PRC?hmm..well nung nag apply kami for board exams halos buong araw ata kami. Tapos dun sa pag file ng requirements may matandang babae dun na naninigaw (scary), lalo na pag may kulang ka or something. Karamihan ng staff masungit,ewan ko ba..tapos nagrequire ng envelop na may selyo na para imail ung result, wala naman ako natanggap..

Pero sabi ng barkada ko may express lane na daw for renewal?from 8am-12noon daw? totoo ba?

[B2Bomber]

buti na lang maayos sila sa Baguio.
Nga lang sana medyo lumawak pa ang offices nila kasi, tuwing pupunta ako (every 3 years) e andaming mga nanggagaling pa from as far as Laoag.

Just a thought..

Bakit kaya kailangan pa natin irenew ang license natin every 3yrs?Once lang naman tayo nagtake ng board exam?

Expired na pala license ko, magkano penalty kapag marenew ako this month?Last May pa expired..

[B2Bomber]

IIRC, walang penalty.

pasensya sa necro-bump .. ok pala ito tsikot.. all things under the sun ma discuss.
back to topic, i agree.. once ka lang mag board, why renew? added hassle, red tape and etc.
plus there are some professions which requires members to be part of an organization for renewal purposes (added fees na naman).
then there's this idea of CPE (continuing prof education?) , i dont know if its good or bad.

my license is expired and im currently non-practicing, pero i owe it to myself that i at least have a valid license after all those years of study. well its just me though.

now, with the thought of renewing , parang ang hassle2 pala. sana pwede nalang mabayaran, kung pwede. hehe..

me too. hehe. the question is, do you need to practice your profession? or may plano ka ba pa? ;)
siguro it might be easier for other professions who dont require a certification from accredited professional organizations / groups.

Have any of you renewed your PRC license lately? I tried to renew mine at SM Calamba but they said they were already offline since April. Masyado hassle sa akin pumunta sa head office, gusto ko sana sa malls dahil open on weekends. Saang mall kaya available pa ang service na ito?

AFAIK, if you don't renew for several years you'll be removed from the list of professionals and will have to take the board exam again.

I never renewed my EcE license because they had this point system where you have to be practicing your profession, attending seminars, teaching, etc. to be eligible to renew. Then I found out they scrapped that idea soon after. Never needed the license anyway. Looking back, I should've just gotten a job as soon as I got my diploma.

i see, no need to renew then if i'm required to take the board again

as you mentioned, never needed the license anyway. maybe if you plan to apply for work in the PI. but in overseas, it's seldom that they require whether you are licensed or not. other countries don't even honor it.

You can renew anytime. Just pay the corresponding penalty. I renewed mine after 20 years as it is now required by the board of accountancy.

Di ba may point system din sa Accountancy bro.?

One of my siblings has to accumulate some number/level of points before the renewal can be given....

PICPA (ket daw) ang nagbibigay ng seminar-points at may boses sa ganitong requirement sa inyong grupo?

I tried renewing my PRC license a few months ago, through the SM counters,- na-reject ako... wala raw silang makitang record.....

you have to check, sir. not all malls offer the service.

or, you can send someone to do it for you.
have your man go to prc, with your old ID and an authorization letter from you.
if the prc now requires their authorization form, then your messenger can get it there and hand it to you to fill out. then he goes back to prc. hey! he's a messenger! no big deal.

the point system is, i believe, to force the professional to be "up to date". it has its pros and cons. your professional society can make it easy for its members or not.

re-newing one's ID is really up to the professional, po.
you may or may not renew it, as scheduled. but be prepared to "suffer the consequences".

btw, the prc ID is a "government-issued ID", should you need one. just like the driver's license and the passport.

good luck, po.
