The Civil Service Commission (CSC) is now accepting entries to the 2018 Government Choral Competition. The deadline of registration and submission of choral work entries is until June 15, 2018.

The Government Choral Competition is one of the highlights of the upcoming 118th Philippine Civil Service Anniversary which aims to showcase musical creativity of talented government employees, promote Filipino culture and arts through choral singing, and inculcate in the minds of public servants a culture of excellence in public service.

As a general rule, a choir should have a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 30 members, including a conductor and accompanist. All singers must belong to one agency only and must be regular employees included in the agency’s plantilla of personnel regardless of status of appointment, including appointive and elective officials, except for the conductor and accompanist, who need not be government employees.

A total of 109 examinees passed the Career Service Examination for Foreign Service Officer (CSE-FSO), the Civil Service Commission (CSC) announced.

The figure represents 17.36% of the total number of examinees who took the CSE-FSO on January 28, 2018 in 12 regions.  

Garnering a rating of 89.47, Christopher Cruz from NCR bested 628 examinees of the CSE-FSO.

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) will administer the Career Service Examination-Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) for both Professional and Sub-professional levels on March 18, 2018. 

Examinees are advised to check their school assignment through the Online Notice of School Assignment (ONSA) from the CSC website.
