The Civil Service Commission (CSC) is inviting barangay nutrition scholars to apply for the Barangay Nutrition Scholar Eligibility (BNSE).
The CSC grants the BNSE to qualified individuals by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 1569, which mandates the deployment of one barangay nutrition scholar (BNS) in every barangay who shall be trained and shall perform volunteer nutrition and related services to help strengthen the barangay nutrition program.
Qualified to apply for BNSE are barangay-based volunteer workers who have rendered at least two years of continuous and satisfactory nutrition services and other related activities such as community health, backyard food production, environmental sanitation, culture, mental feeding, and family planning to the barangay.
Those who have been hired by agencies under Job Order status and/or Contract of Service may still qualify for the grant of BNSE.
The BNSE is a first level #eligibility, which may be considered for appointment to clerical positions and other first level positions in the career service requiring a general first level CS eligibility, provided the appointee meets the education, training, experience, and other requirements of the position.
