The Commission on Higher Education announced on Tuesday that at least 16 Filipinos in Cambodia passed the September Philippine Licensure Examination for Professional Teachers held in Bangkok, Thailand.

Out of the 16 passers, six have completed the Commission on Higher Education-Developing Global Filipino Teachers pilot program implemented through a Memorandum of Cooperation signed between CHED and the Philippine Embassy in Phnom Penh in October 2020.

It seeks to equip, capacitate and enhance the competencies of Filipino teachers in Cambodia to qualify them for better teaching careers.
