During her visit, she was given a briefer by the team from the Professional Regulation Commission on the security steps being undertaken to ensure the integrity of the examinations.

She also visited the examination rooms and conferred with the proctors and PSD administrators.

This year’s SPLE in Doha covers 22 professional licensure board examinations across various disciplines. Over 400 Filipino examinees residing and/or working in Qatar took the examinations.

Pursuant to Executive Order No. 835, series of 2009, the SPLE is held annually to give unlicensed OFWs the opportunity to take the licensure board examinations while residing and/or working in the Middle East region without the need of returning to the Philippines.
