Current Practice Regarding Results Publication
- The PRC and Professional Regulatory Boards customarily publish the names of successful examinees.
- Additionally, the names of the top ten examinees (topnotchers) are included in the examination result releases.
Inclusion of Photographs of Topnotchers
- The new resolution mandates that photos of the top ten examinees be included along with their names in the public release of examination results.
- Including photos serves as a source of pride and motivation for the topnotchers, their families, and their educational institutions.
Cost and Implementation
- The publication of these photographs shall incur no additional cost to the PRC.
- The Commission considers this inclusion as part of effective information dissemination.
Effectivity of the Resolution
- The resolution was adopted on August 10, 2010, and took immediate effect upon adoption.
- This measure seeks to enhance the recognition of top-performing examinees in licensure examinations.
