PRC service center opens in Pangasinan

CALASIAO, Pangasinan — The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) inaugurated its second service center in the Ilocos region at Robinson’s Place here Friday.

In his speech during the event, PRC Commissioner Jose Cueto Jr. said the center accepts applications for various licensure examinations; helps new passers with the initial registration; and accepts renewal of professional identification cards, as well as requests for identifications and authentications.

“We hope to bring PRC services closer to our clients,” Cueto said.

The service center is open Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

“We advised our clients to log on to www.prc-online.com to secure appointments for application for examination, initial registration and renewal of professional identification card, and to pay corresponding fees before transacting in the center,” said PRC Baguio officer-in-charge Evangeline Marilyn Vergara.

Cueto said the PRC will only pay the electricity consumption of the office as the space has been leased for free as stated in a memorandum of agreement with Robinsons.

The inauguration was spearheaded by Movie and Television Review and Classification Board Chairperson Rachel Arenas, who represented 3rd District Rep. Rosemarie Arenas in the event; Calasiao Mayor Joseph Arman Bauzon, and officials of PRC and Robinsons Place.

Arenas and Bauzon thanked the PRC and Robinsons for their initiative, noting that the service center would be a big help to their constituents and the people of Pangasinan.

PRC’s first service center in the Ilocos region is located in the province of Ilocos Norte. (PNA)
