PAGADIAN CITY, April 30 (PIA) - - The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) is set to release Professional Identification Cards (PICs) tomorrow, May 1, 2012 at the City Commercial Complex (C3) in time for the celebration of Labor Day.

Atty. Senando N. Esteban, OIC Regional Director said those who renewed their PICs, and those who registered as new professionals on or before July, 2011 may claim their cards from 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. tomorrow at the PRC Booth inside the C3.

It is one of the activities during the 110th  Labor Day celebration  aside from the Job and Livelihood Fair spearheaded by the Department of Labor and Employment which is expected to help hundreds of job seekers find gainful employment.

Meanwhile, Ms. Maurin M. Monjardin, PRC Information Officer said information services will be made available to the public and they could just approach any personnel stationed at the PRC booth.

The PRC’s mandate is to regulate and supervise the practice of the professionals who constitute the highly skilled manpower of the country. As the agency-in-charge of the professional sector, it plays a strategic role in developing the corps of professionals for industry, commerce, governance, and the economy.

It is  the instrument of the Filipino people in securing for the nation a reliable, trustworthy and progressive system of determining the competence of professionals by credible and valid licensure examinations and standards of professional practice that are globally recognized. (ALT/PIA9-Zambo Sur)
