May 2021 Certified Public Accountants Licensure Examination rescheduled in October
The May 2021 Certified Public Accountants Licensure Examination has been postponed.

The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) on Thursday, March 25, announced that the CPALE will be held on October 10-12, 2021.
In Resolution No. 1335 dated March 19, the PRC said the Professional Regulatory Board Accountancy (Board) recommended to the Commission the postponement and rescheduling of the conduct of May 2021 CPALE for the health and safety of all the examinees and examination personnel.
"With the surge of Coronavirus Disease 2019 cases in the country, including that of the new variants, the exposure to the potential risk of acquiring the same poses fear and anxiety to the Board, examinees and examination personnel," read the resolution.
"Considering the CPALE is classified as a large-scale licensure examination due to big number of applicants nationwide, the complexities in the operational and logistics requirements pose challenges in the preparation and conduct of the May 2021 CPALE," it further read.
"Premises considered, the Commission resolved, as it so resolves to postpone the May 16, 17, 18, 2021 Certified Public Accountants Licensure Examination and to rescheduled the same to October 10, 11 and 12, 2021," the resolution read.
PRC said the previously scheduled October 9, 10 and 16, 2021 CPALE under Resolution No. 1283 will be moved to October 10-12.
In a Facebook post, the Commission also announced that the April 18, 2021 Real Estate Brokers Licensure Examination has been rescheduled to July 21, 2021.
