Free review classes for alumni begin ahead of Civil Service Exam

In preparation for the upcoming March 8, 2026 Civil Service Examinations, graduates of Carlos Hilado Memorial State University attended the first in a series of free review classes on February 8.

Organized by the CHMSC-Talisay Alumni Association, in collaboration with the Federation of Alumni Association of CHMSC (FAAC), Inc. and Alumni Relations Office, this initiative aims to equip graduates of non-board undergraduate programs with the knowledge and skills needed to prepare for the examinations for government service.

The alumni will undergo four Sundays of review classes—February 2, 15, 22, and March 2. The free review classes are one of the federation’s longstanding programs aimed at supporting CHMSU alumni who are interested in working in the government.
