The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) warns the public against dealing with individuals or entities that falsify Continuing Professional Development (CPD) accreditation to charge unsuspecting professionals for programs and courses that are non-accredited and non-existent.
The scheme generally involves asking for registration fees through online payment channels but the promised learning activity either is not accredited or never commences at all.
All professionals are advised to be cautious and take precautionary measures in identifying the CPD Providers and the programs they engage in by verifying their legitimacy through the link below:

Beware of this fraudulent activity. If you encounter any similar case, write and report immediately to the Continuing Professional Development Division (CPDD) at 3rd Floor, Secretariat Building, PICC, Pasay City, or by email at cpdd@prc.gov.ph or through landline No. 8810-8415.
