VETASSESS - documentation question about PRC

lekimumu · May 2023

Hi everyone! Wondering lang if may naka-encounter na hiningan ng PRC (PROFESSIONAL REGULATION COMMISSION) licensure ng VETASSES, pero yung occupation mo hindi naman required nito and therefore you can't actually get a license for it?

For example, I'm getting assessed for Public Relations Professional ANZSCO Code 225311, and my bachelors degree was Multimedia Arts (and they didn't ask for further documents for this). Upon checking, there's no way for me to get this license kasi hindi naman ako engineer, vet, teacher, etc. As you can see, ang layo ng field ko sa mga ganitong type of jobs, which we typically know does need a license to practice.

Any feedback or advice? Thank you!

@lekimumu Hi! Ito rin ang nirequire sa akin na additional document ni vetassess kahit na wala namang licensure exam ang course ko. What I did ay nagdraft ako ng letter nakaaddress sa vetassess informing them na hindi need ng licensure exam tapos nagcite ako ng reference from PRC na wala ang course ko doon and instead may CSE ako since I'm working as a government employee. Positive naman ang response nila basta majustify mo lang. Hope it helps. Thanks.

Wow, thanks! That's very helpful and also reassuring. I'll try doing that. Medyo kinabahan kasi ako na they're asking for something I can't ever provide and since wala akong kaharap e baka hindi ko maexplain ng maayos. And baka mairita pa sakin haha.

Thanks ulit!

Hi, @jrsarmiento @lekimumu ! Chiming in here lang hehe I was just wondering, from which school did you graduate with your bachelor's degree? I'm asking because my university apparently belongs to section 2. I am also considering getting assessed for the Public Relations Professional sana, but I'm not sure if I should proceed or not. Thanks so muchhh!

@jrsarmiento Hi! What if hindi po government employee and no PRC? Will the the reference of required courses from PRC suffice?

Qualifications from section 2 institutions will only be equivalent to a diploma unfortunately.
