New Exam Date for the Postponed March 15 Civil Service Exam

March 15, 2020 Civil Service Exams Suspended & Re-scheduled date

The Civil Service Examination – Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) which was supposed to be conducted on March 15, 2020, is SUSPENDED by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) due to health and safety concerns for both our examinees and test center staff stemming from the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

The said suspension is in compliance with the Proclamation No. 922 signed by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte

The proclamation was officially released on March 9, 2020, declaring a State of Public Health Emergency throughout the Philippines and calling for the implementation of urgent, critical measures to contain the spread of COVID-19.

According to Civil Service Commission, “the CS exams was supposed to be held in 66 testing locations nationwide with an estimated total of 293,845 individuals nationwide registered to take the test. Of the figure, an estimated 253,419 will take the Professional Level of exam while an estimated 40,426 will attempt to hurdle the Sub-professional Level.

Thus, it is necessary to suspend the exams as a preemptive health measure to mitigate the rise in the number of COVID-19 cases and to support the national and local government units in undertaking appropriate response and measures in a timely manner to curtail and eliminate the COVID-19 threat”.

NEW SCHEDULED DATE OF EXAMS:

The (CSC) Commission is yet to announce the new date replacing the March 15, 2020 Civil Service Exams. We will keep an eye on this matter as soon as the commission made an official announcement regarding the re-scheduled date of CSE-PPT.
