839 individuals benefit from PRC’s mobile processing program


by Franklin P. Gumapon

DIPOLOG CITY, May 6 (PIA) - - “We have saved on our travel expenses.

This was the statement aired by those who have availed themselves of the mobile processing program conducted here recently by a group of personnel from the regional office of the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC)-IX based in Pagadian City.

The PRC has assisted some 839 individuals applying for professional identification card renewal, board examinations, certifications, verifications and others.

It was also learned that the said activity was made possible through the assistance of the city government headed by Mayor Evelyn T. Uy.

Since the PRC has no provincial offices, those who have transactions with said office have to travel to Pagadian City to process their applications for license card renewal, certifications and other related documents.

Most of the professionals who have availed of the mobile processing program were teachers followed by nurses, midwives, criminologists, engineers, accountants and social workers.

These professionals are also hoping that the PRC’s mobile processing program be conducted here regularly to help bring down the cost of the processing of documents with the said office. (FPG/PIA-Zamboanga del Norte)
