Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
CPD Courses Questions
What is CPD?
CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. Per the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) Resolution No. 1032, Series of 2017 (IRR of RA 10912), CPD refers to inculcation of advanced knowledge, skills, and ethical values in a post- licensure specialization or an inter- or multidisciplinary field of study, for assimilation into professional practice, self- directed research, and/ or lifelong learning.
Can everyone enroll or register to your online CPD courses?
Yes, anyone can enroll or register, even non- CPD attendees or those not needing Continuing Professional Development (CPD) units. You can check the rates and prices which are clearly reflected on the course posters before registration.
For professionals who need CPD units, right now, The Precious Coach® provides CPD units to nurses as it has secured a provider accreditation under the Board of Nursing. Nonetheless, the company is working to include other professions, especially those related to healthcare and education. The ultimate goal is to be the premier CPD provider in the country for all professionals.
If a professional should register to the courses under the Non-CPD rate/ price, he can still use the course certificate for application to the PRC- CPD Department as a “Self- Directed/ Lifelong Learning” course. However, the professional will need to pay a certain fee and secure documentary stamps for the application, and follow PRC’s procedures.
The website shall be updated for its course offerings and the list of professions that it caters.
How do I secure my course certificates?
Completing your CPD requirements and self- directed courses can now be done in five (5) easy steps, through The Precious Coach® online platform!
Step 1- Sign up, or sign in! (accurately fill- out the registration form to ensure that correct information show on your electronic certificates)
Step 2- Choose and Pay! (choose your courses and pay through our different payment channels)
Step 3- Play and Finish! (play the video-on-demand course on your convenience, but make sure to finish 100% before end of course availability period)
Step 4- Take the exam! (complete the 10-item multiple choice questions by scoring 7 or above)
Step 5- Print or Save! (you can either print, or save your electronic certificates for future use)
Can I finish the course anytime?
The courses are designed as videos- on- demand, meaning attendees can hit “pause” and come back another time when they are ready for the next segment or topic.
However, attendees are reminded to take note of the Course Availability as the PRC- CPD Department only allows courses to be posted either only for six (6) or twelve (12) months. This means that the attendee should have finished the course and passed the online exam before end of the Course Availability Period.
The Precious Coach® shall ensure that the Course Availability Period shall be posted clearly on the Course Posters for easy reference.
Does the PRC have access to my courses and scores?
Yes. One of the requirements of the PRC is for CPD Providers to submit a complete list of their course attendees. The Precious Coach® shall submit the attendees’ names, profession, license number, scores, and other information, as required on the PRC Monitoring and Completion Report.
My company gives me allowances for CPD trainings but I need official receipts (OR) to reimburse. Do you provide Official Receipts to your attendees?
Yes. We are a registered business entity with the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR). We strictly follow BIR’s rule of issuing official receipts to all our clients. Kindly send us an email for your request for copy of Official Receipt.
What are the technical requirements for completion?
- For best experience, use Google Chrome as your browser
- Limit or close all other browser tabs to prevent interference with your internet connection
- Use headsets or earphones for better sound quality
- You are required to finish all segments from Opening Prayer down to the Evaluation Exam. Otherwise, your
course will not be tagged as “completed” and you will not be able to secure your certificate and transcript - You are strictly prohibited to take screen recordings of our courses
- No one is allowed to download our online courses
- Make sure that you score 7 out of 10 to successfully pass your evaluation exam!

The foundation verse is added in the logo to always remind all clients and team members that they are wonderfully and fearfully made by God.
Why are your brand logos colored blue and yellow?
The color blue is closely associated to health, healing, and tranquility. Yellow is the color of sunshine, thus it depicts joy, happiness, and energy. The Precious Coach® and The Precious Club logos are reminders that happiness and health are essentials of life.
