PRC Board Exam Schedule 2026-2027 - All Professions Complete Calendar
The PRC publishes its full-year examination calendar through an annual resolution (the 2026 schedule lives in Resolution No. 2113, s. 2025) — but reading a government PDF is nobody's idea of clarity. Here is the calendar for the professions we cover, with what each date means for your application timeline.
2026 Schedule — Our Professions
| Exam | 2026 Schedule | Status |
|---|
|------|---------------|--------|
| CLE (Criminology) | February 4-6 ✓ held · August 1-3 | Aug results expected ~4-5 weeks after |
| PNLE (Nursing) | February 26-27 ✓ held · August 29-30 | Results ~5-15 working days after |
| LET (Teachers) | March 15 ✓ held · September (confirm exact date on prc.gov.ph) | Results ~40-60 working days after |
| MTLE (MedTech) | March 5-6 ✓ held · August (confirm exact date on prc.gov.ph) | Results ~3-5 working days after |
| PhLE (Pharmacy) | April 18-19 ✓ held · November (confirm exact date on prc.gov.ph) | Results ~3-5 working days after |
| ALE (Agriculture) | November (confirm exact date on prc.gov.ph) | Results ~6 working days after |
✓ = already conducted this year. Always confirm your exam's final dates on the official PRC calendar — the Commission occasionally reschedules for typhoons and holidays (the November 2025 ALE was moved for Super Typhoon Uwan; February 2026 CLE day 3 moved in two cities for Tropical Storm Basyang).
The Application Timeline That Actually Matters
The exam date is the last date in your calendar, not the first:
- Application window — LERIS applications typically close weeks to months before the exam; popular exams fill appointment slots early
- Requirements prep — TOR, PSA documents, and school certifications take time to secure; start 3+ months out
- NOA and room assignment — released in the final weeks; watch our per-exam guides
- Review runway — the real deadline: count backward from exam day

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the official PRC exam schedule?
PRC Resolution No. 2113, s. 2025 on prc.gov.ph sets the 2026 calendar; the 2027 resolution is typically issued in the second half of 2026.
How early should I apply for a board exam?
As soon as your window opens — LERIS appointment slots for popular exams fill early, and document gathering takes longer than most first-timers expect.
Can exam dates change?
Yes — typhoons and national events have moved recent exams. Follow the PRC's official pages the week of your exam.
