Advisory: LMS Rebranding to PCC eCLASS

In line with its rebranding efforts, PCC's Learning Management System (LMS), previously known as iCLP: Online Learning Hub on Competition Law and Policy, will now be called PCC eCLASS: Enhanced Competition Learning Activities Spaces.

Correspondingly, the platform’s domain name will be changed from iclp.phcc.gov.ph to eclass.phcc.gov.ph.

Please be advised that the LMS will be temporarily unavailable from March 27, 2026 (5:00 PM) to March 31, 2026 (11:59 PM) to facilitate this transition.

Beginning April 1, 2026, users may access PCC’s online courses through the new domain.

 

 

 

PCC Advisory: Trunkline Service Interruption

 

/ ICN 2026

Mabuhay!

The Philippines will transcend regional boundaries by welcoming competition authorities worldwide to Manila for the 25th ICN Annual Conference. This gathering, hosted by a young competition authority, will focus on the future of fair markets. At the Annual ICN Conference, competition authorities converge to exchange expertise and best practices, to collectively shape global enforcement approaches, and to create synergy with competition authorities. The sessions will provide crucial insights into emerging trends and challenges that confront competition authorities and explore how these can be addressed to ensure a fair and robust competitive market.
 
Beyond the conference halls, connect with the heart of the Philippines. Experience the flavors of its cuisine, where every meal reflects its heritage and every dish has a story. Experience Filipino hospitality and feel the warmth of our people. A whole adventure awaits, from dynamic cityscapes in Manila and beyond, stunning landscapes, and captivating seascapes.

We look forward to hosting exciting and dynamic discussions on competition policy, catching up with old friends, and making new ones. 

See you in Manila for the ICN 2026!

Maraming Salamat!
