MAASIN CITY, Southern Leyte, April 12 (PIA) -- The Office of the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC)-8 through its Regional Director German Palayab signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with Southern Leyte Governor Damian G. Mercado to bring their services closer to Southern Leyteños.
The MOA signing was held at the governor’s office here this morning, April 11.
“Both parties need to gain strength and joint benefits from its creative cooperation and collaboration towards extending frontline services such as 'one-stop shop' to be set up by the local government unit in order to serve the public more efficiently," the MOA stated.
Director Palayab disclosed that the office will open as soon as the assigned staff from the local government will be trained. “An office staff will be trained for two days,” the director said, referring to one of the counterparts of the provincial government, an office staff in addition to the office space, among other supports to PRC.
PRC’s service commitment to the said agreement would bring services closer to the constituents of Southern Leyte by extending its window services at the provincial capitol, and conducting “PRC on wheels” whenever requested in order to renew PRC professional IDs, issuance of certifications, authentications, and accept applications for PRC licensure examinations.
The source added that PRC will also conduct briefings on PRC services and Licensure Examinations upon request from the provincial government, manage the day-to-day operations of the PRC Service Kiosk at the local level, among other service commitments.
On the other hand, the provincial government likewise will extend assistance to PRC, such as to cooperate with the PRC desk officer to ensure that only qualified and licensed professionals are employed at positions in the municipalities that require such qualifications, cooperate with the PRC for the protection of the public by raising awareness among professionals in government service.
The MOA signing was witnessed by Vice Governor Mike Maamo, Sangguniang Panlalwigan Member Romeo Gomez, Provincial Administrator Crispin Arong, Jr., College of Maasin President Miguel Udtohan, and media personnel from Southern Leyte Balita and PIA-Maasin. (LDL/RGC-PIA 8 Southern Leyte)
