JOBSEEKERS CAN NOW ACCESS ACADEMIC RECORDS VIA eGovPh SUPER APP

COLLEGE graduates no longer need to travel far to secure their academic credentials, as these documents can now be accessed through the eGovPH Super App for job applications.

President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Friday officially launched the Electronic Certification, Authentication, and Verification (eCAV) System, a digital platform designed to streamline students’ access to academic records such as diplomas, transcripts of records (TOR), and other certificates necessary for their job applications.

During the launch event held at the Cuneta Astrodome in Pasay City, President Marcos said college graduates no longer have to physically visit their school, as academic credentials can now be accessed anytime and anywhere through the eGovPH Super App.

The eGovPH Super App is a mobile application that integrates various national and local government services, eliminating the need to visit multiple agencies for a transaction.

“Hindi na kailangang bumiyahe nang malayo pa. Sa pamamagitan ng eGovPH Super App, maaari nang makakuha ang estudyante o bagong graduate ng academic credential para sa kanilang job application,” President Marcos said.

Key features of the eCAV system include online payments, real-time tracking, timely updates of application status, and a downloadable copy of the applicant’s certificates from their account or email.

Under Republic Act No. 11261, or the First Time Jobseekers Assistance Act, first-time jobseekers can be exempt from the CAV fee by providing a barangay certification.

Alongside the event, President Marcos also announced various government assistance given to college students, including full or partial tuition fee aid, subsidy, grant, and reimbursement opportunity.

These various forms of assistance are provided under the Unified Student Financial Assistance System for Tertiary Education (UniFAST) Scholarship, which aims to strengthen the education system to achieve a stronger and globally competitive workforce.
