CSE-PPT dates are set per examination announcement. The last published nationwide sitting is below. The next exam after 09 August 2026 is not yet posted on the materials we retrieved on 16 August 2026. Treat social-media calendars as rumor until you open the current PDF on csc.gov.ph.
Last published cycle (not the next open window)
From CSC Examination Announcement No. 03, s. 2026 (16 April 2026):
| 09 August 2026 CSE-PPT | |
|---|---|
| Exam date | 09 August 2026 |
| Application period | 14 May 2026 – 10 June 2026 (first-come, first-served; a CSC Regional/Field Office may close earlier when slots fill) |
| Target List of Passers | on or before 12 October 2026 (CSC notes this may move with actual examinee count) |
| Individual rating (OCSERGS) | on or before 19 October 2026, or a later CSC advisory |
CSC news covering the March 2026 sitting called 09 August 2026 the second and final CSE-PPT of 2026. That does not create a 2027 date.
Some 09 August 2026 venues were reported postponed because of weather. If that applies to you, use CSC channels for any makeup — we do not invent a reschedule date.
How to check the next schedule
- Open csc.gov.ph and find the latest Examination Announcement for CSE-PPT (Professional / Subprofessional).
- Read exam date, application From–To, testing centers, and target release of results.
- If anything is unclear, ask the CSC Regional or Field Office where you will file — not a group chat.
If you set an exam date in this app, that field is your entry for countdown and pacing. We never treat it as an official CSC date.
What we will not invent
- A next CSE-PPT date, “usually March/August” calendar, or application window that CSC has not posted
- Testing-center lists copied from an old cycle as if they still apply
- Makeup dates for postponed rooms
