The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) has announced a significant schedule change for the upcoming Philippine Nursing Licensure Examination due to the approaching Typhoon Jenny.
The nursing board exams originally scheduled for September 3-4, 2023, have been officially postponed to ensure the safety of all examinees and personnel across affected testing centers.
New Examination Dates Confirmed
According to the latest advisory, the rescheduled nursing licensure examination will now take place on September 24-25, 2023. This decision comes as Typhoon Jenny continues to intensify and pose potential risks to transportation and testing facilities.
Safety First Approach
The PRC emphasized that the postponement prioritizes the welfare of thousands of nursing graduates scheduled to take the examination. "The safety of our examinees and personnel is our primary concern," stated the commission in their official announcement.
What Examinees Need to Know
- All previous examination permits remain valid for the new schedule
- Testing centers and room assignments will remain unchanged
- Examinees should monitor official PRC channels for further updates
- Additional preparation time is now available for candidates
The commission advises all affected individuals to stay updated through official PRC social media accounts and website for any additional announcements regarding the nursing board examination.
