The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) warns the transacting public to be cautious in disclosing or sharing their personal information, especially their Licensure Examination and Registration Information System (LERS) username and password. This is to safeguard the applicants and professionals from any data breach which may lead to identity theft and unauthorized transactions.
They are also advised not to deal with unscrupulous individuals or entities that offer assistance to facilitate the speedy completion of their government transactions. PRC does not authorize any individual or entity, not connected with the agency, to collect fees to facilitate completion of PRC transactions. All official onsite transactions are only done at PRC offices and with authorized PRC personnel, while PRC online transactions are done through the PRC official website (www.prc.gov.ph) or at online.prc.gov.ph.
The public is highly encouraged to report any suspicious or unauthorized transaction by or with an individual or entity to the PRC Anti-Red Tape Unit through e-mail, at arta@prc.gov.ph. Inquiries and request for assistance may also be sent to the said e-mail address, for prompt action and/or response.
The PRC is continuously taking measures to protect the transacting public from any adverse circumstances arising from unauthorized and dubious transactions.
