PAGADIAN CITY - The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) announced today that the Board
Licensure Examination for Professional Teachers (BLEPT) in Zamboanga City,
Tawi-Tawi and Jolo, Sulu has been reset from September 29, 2013 to January 26,
2014.
In a press statement, the PRC and
the Professional Regulatory Board for Professional Teachers have decided to
postpone the scheduled exams in the aforementioned areas upon consultations
with Zamboanga City Mayor Ma. Isabelle Climaco-Salazar, Tawi-Tawi Governor
Nurbert Sahali and Sulu Governor Abdusakur A. Tan II.
PRC earlier declared that the
postponement of the BLEPT was decided due to the limited access to air and sea
transport services brought about by the armed hostilities between government
troops and MNLF – Nur Misuari faction.
Another vital consideration was the safety and security of the examinees
and examination personnel. (PIA9)
