The National Police Commission (Napolcom) announced the activation of the Online Examination Application Scheduling System (OLEASS) in the website caex.napolcom.gov.ph.
This was made to facilitate the conduct of the Computer-Assisted Examination (Napolcom CAEx) for applicants of the PNP Entrance examination.
The examinations will be held every Tuesday and Thursday for the months of May, June, July and September 2019 at the Napolcom Central Office in Quezon City.

Only 40 examinees will be accommodated per examination day.
The Certificate of Eligibility or Report of Rating will be given personally to the examinee after the examination.
Examinees who failed in the NAPOLCOM CAEx shall be allowed to take the same exam after three months.
The PNP entrance examination is open to all Filipino citizens who are bachelor’s degree holder and not more than 30 years old. Police Officers (PO1) whose appointments are temporary for lack of appropriate eligibility are also required to take the PNP Entrance Examination.
