Limited Free CPD Certificate – Finish Early to Get One

By Mike Nicol Uy

December 8, 2025


Hello everyone.

Welcome to Philippine CPD Online. We would like to inform you that due to a recent ruling by the PRC CPD councils, we are only allowed to issue a limited number of CPD certificates for each lecture, the number of which has been approved by each profession’s CPD council.

Before we were allowed to issue as many certificates as those who has completed the course even if the number exceeds what was approved by the PRC. Now, issuing more CPD certificates than what was approved by the PRC will result in severe penalties which may even include loss of our PRC accreditation. Therefore, once the number of certificates issued reach the quota approved by PRC, we can no longer issue additional CPD certificates even if the course validity has not yet expired.

Listed below are the total number of CPD certificates we are allowed by each CPD council to issue for each course. We are also including the total number of certificates issued as of November 30, 2025 and the remaining certificates available to be issued.

For the months of October and November 2025 alone, over 2200 people have applied for each of the two courses. Even though we do not expect everyone who will take the course to finish, from all indications there is a big possibility that all available certificates may be issued way before the April 2026 expiration date of the courses.

Therefore, we urge you to hurry up and finish the course before all the approved certificates have been awarded.

For a limited time until December 31, 2025, we are temporarily suspending the chapter quizzes, to help people finish the course faster. Also to help people pass the final quiz. We will help people who meet the following conditions to pass it.

  1. 1
    Have taken the quiz at least 3 times
  2. 2
    Have a score of 6/10 on at least one of the quizzes.

Just email us when the above conditions are met. We will check our logs to confirm this.

Remember, this is only until December 31, 2025. 

Thank You.
