PRC(Professional Regulation Commission)

The Professional Regulation Commission is responsible for the administration, implementation and enforcement of regulatory policies on the regulation and licensing of various professions and occupations under its jurisdiction. It is the instrument of the Filipino people in securing for the nation a reliable, trustworthy, and progressive system of developing professionals whose personal integrity and spiritual values are solid and respected, whose competencies are globally competitive, and whose commitment to serve the Filipino nation and the whole community is strong and steadfast.

History
The Professional Regulation Commission was first created as a national government agency by Presidential Decree (P.D.) No. 223 dated June 22, 1973, signed by then President Ferdinand E. Marcos. It was previously called the Office of the Boards of Examiners created by Republic Act No. 546 on June 17, 1950, under the Civil Service Commission (CSC). The PRC became operational on January 4, 1974 with the assumption into office of the first set of appointed Commissioners and Associate Commissioners. That year, Arch. Eric C. Nubla assumed office as Commissioner. The PRC was placed under the Office of the President for general supervision and coordination. The Implementing Rules and Regulations of P.D. No. 223 was promulgated on December 9, 1974. Under P.D. 223, professional regulation was standardized for the thirty-three (33) professions then under the PRC. The PRC Coat-of-Arms designed by the Heraldry Commission was officially adopted on February 1. The CSC building at P. Paredes Street in Sampaloc, Manila became the PRC Main Building on February 12. The PRC started issuing certificates of registration in Filipino with English translation. Proclamation No. 1276 was issued declaring June 22 to 29 of the year as "Professional Consciousness Week." Computerization of the database of registered professionals started with the assistance of the National Computer Center. In 1975, the PRC started issuance of computer-printed registration cards with one-year validity. It also started accrediting professional organizations. On October 11, 1975 Presidential Decree No. 839 was issued placing the PRC under the general direction and coordination of the CSC. In August 1976, the PRC entered into an agreement with the Civil Service Commission to register all board examination passers as civil service eligibles pursuant to R.A. 1080, as amended. In 1977, the PRC started issuing registration cards valid for 3 years pursuant to Letter of Instruction No. 567. The agency conferred the first "Outstanding Professional of the Year" awards. Proclamation No. 1646 was issued declaring June 22-29 of every year as "Professional Consciousness Week." The year 1981 saw the completion and inauguration of the PRC Annex Building. In 1982, the PRC conducted mass oath-taking ceremonies of new professionals. The Specialty Board of Interior Design under the Board of Architecture was created.

In 1983, the Specialty Board of Landscape Architecture under the Board of Architecture was created. Two microcomputers are acquired in 1984 to start off computerization of Application, Registration and Examination System. The PRC created the database of applicants for examinations in 1987. In 1988, the Board of Accountancy started the monitoring of performance of schools on licensure examinations. In 1990, partially-computerized licensure examinations started with the August physician licensure examinations using computerized answer sheets. PRC developed the Test Questions Databank System in 1991. Partially-computerized licensure examinations started with the physician licensure examinations in August, followed by partiallycomputerized licensure examinations for midwives, accountants, medical technologists, and nurses. Enhanced partial computerization of licensure examinations was also implemented for marine deck and engine officers. During the same year, Executive Order No. 496 was signed by President Corazon C. Aquino instituting procedures and criteria for the selection and recommendation of nominees to vacant positions in the Professional Regulatory Boards. The first Commission Planning Conference was held. In 1992, Atty. Hermogenes P. Pobre assumed office as Commissioner. Executive Order No. 200 was issued institutionalizing partial computerization for all licensure examinations. Computerized application forms were pilot-tested in the CPA licensure examination. In the same year, the PRC formulated its Information Systems Strategic Plan (ISSP) to computerize vital agency operations, leading to the partial computerization of licensure examinations for marine deck and engineer officers through a Test Question Databank System and computerized checking and rating of test results. The Commission implemented the Continuing Professional Education (CPE) for all professions and resumed the conferment of "Outstanding Professional of the Year" awards, which was discontinued from 1986 to 1991. The Commission also started the conferment of the "Outstanding Accredited Professional Organization of the Year" award. The first PRC Commission Planning Conference was held. The year 1993 witnessed the implementation of fully-computerized examinations in fifteen professions through the Test Question Databank and correction of test papers by Optical Mark Reader. Lloyd's List commended the PRC for its computerization of the maritime examinations. Executive Order No. 56 placed the PRC, with thirty-seven (37) Professional Regulatory Boards and two (2) Specialty Boards and 271 staff, under the Office of the President. CPE was implemented in fifteen professions. Delinquent professionals were delisted from the rolls of registered professionals. In 1994, Republic Act No. 7836 ("Philippine Teachers Professionalization Act") was enacted, transferring the regulation of the teaching profession from the CSC to the PRC. Enhanced partial computerization of licensure systems was mandated by Executive Order No. 200, leading to a dramatic decline in the release of examination results to an average of 70 days from 160 in the previous year. Computerized application forms were pilot-tested in the CPA licensure examination. PRC started conferment of "Outstanding Accredited Professional Organization of the Year" award. In 1995, the Office for Professional Teachers was established. CPE Councils for each of the professions were constituted. Examination results were released in an average of 14.4 days from 70 days in 1994. PRC monitored the performance of schools in licensure examinations. President Fidel Ramos issued Executive Order No. 266 on July 25 institutionalizing CPE and making it mandatory for the renewal of professional license.

In 1996, decentralization of agency operations began with the full operations of regional offices in the cities of Baguio and Cebu.

Guests from Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Mongolia visited the PRC to observe the computerized examinations and CPE programs. In 1998, the PRC celebrated its Silver Anniversary with President Fidel V. Ramos as Guest of Honor and Speaker at the Awards Night. As it was the Philippine Centennial Year, the agency rededicated itself in the service of the Filipino nation and in nurturing the Filipino professionals for the 21st century.

The database of marine officers was established in compliance with R.A. 8544.
