AMENDATORY GUIDELINES TO CESB RESOLUTION NO. 791 S. 2009 ENTITLED “THE REVISED INTEGRATED RULES ON THE GRANT OF CAREER EXECUTIVE SERVICE ELIGIBILITY”

WHEREAS, the Board in its June 13, 2013 meeting
agreed to revisit certain rules on the retake of the Assessment Center,
and on the revalidation process;

WHEREAS, such revisit entails amending Resolution No. 791 s. 2009 to reflect three (3) – year intervals between the 3^rd retake and every retake thereafter;

WHEREAS, the integrity of the AC process is not
affected by the amendatory policy to be adopted as sufficient safeguards
are in place to protect such integrity; and

WHEREAS, such revisit likewise entails further
amending Resolution No. 791 s. 2009 to reflect that revalidation be
conducted within six (6) months reckoned from the time the Board decided
en banc to subject the applicant to a revalidation but with an option
for extension upon request of the applicant.

NOW THEREFORE, foregoing premises considered, the
Board RESOLVES, as it is hereby RESOLVED, to amend Rule Ill, Section 4;
and Rule IV, Section 3 of Resolution No. 791 s. 2009 to read as follows

“RULE III
ASSESSMENT CENTER

Section 4. Assessment Center Retake. The following are the rules on AC retake:

4.1	An applicant who did not pass the AC for the 1st time shall be allowed to take the same, or a 1st retake, only after one (1) year reckoned from the date of conduct of the AC.
4.2	An applicant who is unable to pass the 1st retake shall be allowed another retake, or a 2nd retake, only after two (2) years reckoned from the date of the 1st retake.
4.3	An applicant shall be allowed a 3rd retake of the AC, and for as many retakes thereafter, if he does not pass said 3rd retake and for said retakes thereafter, only on the condition that a 3-year interval should elapse from the conduct of the 2nd retake and the 3rd retake, and that retakes thereafter shall be allowed after 3-year intervals between the previous and succeeding retakes.

An applicant shall only be scheduled for a retake upon payment of an appropriate AC fee.

Section 3. Validator’s Recommendation. A Validator may submit any of the following recommendations:

3.1	The applicant shall undergo the in-depth Validation Process;
3.2	Proceed to the next stage of the CES eligibility examination process;
3.3	Defer the conduct of the Performance Validation; or
3.4	Undergo the revalidation of performance on-the-job.

In case of revalidation of an
applicant’s performance on-the-job if he/she failed to meet the
standards set by the Board after conduct of the In-Depth Validation
Process, the Board may require that such revalidation be conducted
within (six) 6 months reckoned from the time the Board decided en banc
to subject the applicant concerned to a revalidation. The applicant
nonetheless may opt, through a written request, that said 6-month period
be extended.

The applicant and his/her immediate superior shall be given
appropriate feedback of the result of the conduct of the Performance
Validation. The Office of the applicant shall be advised by the Board to
provide an appropriate developmental intervention to the applicant
concerned.
