My wife ranked number 1 in the whole division of elementary education. But has not been given a permanent position. Whereas, those who are on the rank 5 and 7 are already permanent.
Connection is the key
Good day, ma’am /sir
When po ang next updating for RQAs this year 2023 ?
Thank you and more power!
I will be ONE of the Public Teachers here in Philippines within this year 2023. I claimed it!
Manifesting..
valid po ba ito sa buong bansa?kasi po dito aa amin sa bohol ay hindi daw kami bibigyan ng additional points na mga LGU teachees.according sa nakasaad dito.
Helo po Admin. For SY 2022-2023. Eto bang DO 17 magagamit or ung latest na do ung DO 50 of 2016.Thank you
Hello ma’am,
Ito pa rin pong DO 7 S, 2015 kasi yung DO 50 S, 2016 po is for Teaching in Schools Implementing Indigenous Peoples Education po. Though it depends po kung saan po kayo mag aapply. 🙂
Hi! Question lang po. Pwede po ba itake una ang CB-EPT kahit hindi pa ako nakapag submit ng application ko? Sinagutan ko kasi yung EPT survey last month tapos nagulat ako nakareceive ako ng EPT sched ko last week s email ko, naka schedule ngayong September 22, 2022. I’m confused now kasi di pa naman ako nakapag apply kasi kulang pa ang requirements ko, akala ko kasi survey lng yung pinasagutan. Okay lng po ba magtake ako ng EPT ngayong Sep. 22 kahit next time na ako mag apply for DepEd kapag nag hiring na ulit? Or ano po best na gawin sa case ko? Sana may makasagot po. Maraming salamat. God bless.
You can ignore the email po kung ayaw nyo pa mag take, pero kung gusto nyo po pwede nyo naman ituloy. May validity din kasi yung result ng ept so possible na baka by the time na mag aapply na kayo ay mage expire na yung ept score nyo.
Pwde na po ba mag-apply ngayon? Thanks po
Pwede po ba maretain ang ept points na 2 yrs ago na natake. Since ang sabi sa memo ang mga nasa rqa po ay pwedeng magretain ng points? Saka po kung hindi pa rin po ba nairreease ang bagong RQA this year at need n po ng new teachers dhil may item available, pwede p rin po ba silang kumuha muna ng teachers sa rqa last yr? or hhintayin po muna nila marelease ang new rqa? thanks po sana masagot.
Hello ma’am Camila,
EPT result has an expiration/validity. However, it will still depend on your division. Kindly ask them or wait for their memorandum regarding this matter. They might require all applicants in the RQA to submit a letter of intent to retain their points.
Thank you!
Priority po ba sa item yun mga nagparetain ng points? Yun mga dating nasa rqa na hindi pa rin nabibigyan ng item tapos naabutan ng bagong ranking? Priority po ba kami dun sa mga bagong rqa?
Yung asawa ko rank 1, hindi napermanent pero yung rank 7 at 5 na permanent na
Ano pong date ng deadline sa pag pass ng application for teacher position? Salamat po sa sasagot.
Depende po yan ma’am sa DO nyo. I suggest na itanong nyo po doon. 🙂
