📢 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
FREE CPD WEBINAR
Drug Evidence Management: Chain of Custody, Integrity, and Legal Compliance
August 1–2, 2026

The Professional Criminologists Association of the Philippines (PCAP) extends its appreciation to the more than 11,000 registered participants for your overwhelming support of this free Continuing Professional Development (CPD) webinar.

To ensure an orderly and efficient conduct of the activity, please take note of the following:

📌 1. Zoom Link

Sending individual Zoom links to more than 11,000 participants would require several days, create unnecessary delays, complicate participant monitoring, and may affect the integrity of our registration database.

📌 2. First-Come, First-Served
Access to the Zoom meeting is strictly on a first-come, first-served basis until the platform reaches its maximum capacity.

📌 3. Facebook Live
Participants who are unable to enter the Zoom room may still attend the webinar through the official Facebook Live broadcast, which will likewise be announced and posted on this page before the program begins.

📌 4. Stay Updated
To avoid missing important announcements, please Like and Follow the following official PCAP pages:

✅ PCAP CPD Page
