Co-Curricular Record

How to provide and receive CCR recognition:

CCR recognition is now managed through the new UMCommunityLink Portal. The new portal creates an official Co-Curricular Record that exists off the transcript. The new official document provides greater detail about your activities, and follows best practices set out by North American institutions. More information about the portal will be released shortly. Several announcements and training sessions have been provided to facilitators of currently approved co-curricular activities.

For CCR Activity Facilitators: Manual for navigating the portal, providing CCR recognition, and adding your official CCR group to the system.
For Students: Guide to Login, navigate portal, and access your co-curricular record.

For more information or to arrange a training session for CommunityLink, please contact David Grad. (204-474-6637)

If you missed the deadline, another opportunity will be approaching. Please contact Dave Grad for more information.

What is the Co-Curricular Record?

The Co-Curricular Record (CCR) is a formalized, university-certified record of U of M approved and facilitated activities that support student development in venues that are not for academic credit. The CCR will be received by students alongside the academic transcript, as a clear statement of involvement in activities that support holistic student development.

Based on a series of guidelines, students' contributions which are not for academic credit will be recognized in the areas of governance, leadership, service learning, awards and volunteerism/participation in addition to their academic record. More than simply being about the recognition of contributions, the project aims to identify opportunities throughout the campus for students to participate in a way that interests them, at a department, faculty or university-wide level.

U of M activities and co-curricular programs will not automatically appear on the CCR. Program supervisors will need to apply for their programs to be recognized on the CCR. All applications will be reviewed by the Co-Curricular Review Committee for approval.

Programs applying to the CCR must be under the direction of a University of Manitoba Faculty, Department, Administrative unit, the University of Manitoba Students' Union or the Graduate Students' Association.

Please review the U of M CCR Senate Policy for information on the Co-Curricular Record, the category criteria, and the approval process for recognition on the CCR.

Programs can apply for recognition under ONE of the following five categories:
