Far last June 1, 2016 due to his deployment for UNICEF resulting to the board without the required legal quorum to validly perform its duties and functions particularly the formulation and extraction of test items, conduct of exams and releasing of results.

    We really assumed that the board exam for social workers 2016 is postponed. We asked the PRC here in our place and they confirmed it as affirmative and exclaimed that the board exam will be held either Aug. Or October. This is very dissapointing. Anyway, Thank you for clearing this issue.- Je
