A TOTAL of 208 senior officials of the Philippine National Police (PNP) took the Police Executive Service Eligibility (PESE) Written Examination conducted by the National Police Commission or Napolcom in three major testing centers across the country on April 26, 2025.
The testing centers were PNP Training Service, Camp BGen Rafael T. Crame in Quezon City; University of Cebu-Senior High School in Cebu City; and University of Mindanao-Matina Campus in Davao City.
