1. What is the Co Curricular Record (CCR)?
The CCR is a formal record of student participation in not-for-credit opportunities at the University of Manitoba.

2. Why was the CCR created?
The University of Manitoba values the participation that students contribute in and out of the classroom, and feel that students should be recognized for those contributions.

3. What are the benefits of being listed on the CCR?
For students, they receive documentation of their commitment and involvement in programs that they have not received academic credit for, but are facilitated by the U of M community. For Programs, it is a way of recognizing your students’ contribution to your individual program, and the valuable experience that students will gain from participating in co curricular programming.

4. What programs are eligible for recognition?
All programs that are not for academic credit and are under the direction of a University of Manitoba Faculty, Department, Administrative unit, the University of Manitoba Students' Union or the Graduate Students' Association are invited to apply for recognition.

For more detailed information, please review the CCR Senate policy at: http://umanitoba.ca/admin/governance/governing_documents/academic/1139.htm

5. How do I apply for recognition of programs in my area?
Visit the CCR information page at: http://umanitoba.ca/student/housing/studentlife/ccr.html

Select the appropriate category for your program, and complete the application form in as much detail as you can supply the committee with.

Please ensure that your form is signed by the appropriate signatory and submitted to Student Life by December 1, 2011.

All applications will be reviewed by the Co-Curricular Record Review Committee, and will receive feedback regarding their applications in the fall academic term.

6. Where does my program fit?
We encourage all program supervisors and/or validators of programs to review the CCR Senate policy at: http://umanitoba.ca/admin/governance/governing_documents/academic/1139.htm

7. What qualifies a program for recognition?
Again, we encourage all program supervisors and/or validators of programs to review the CCR Senate policy at: http://umanitoba.ca/admin/governance/governing_documents/academic/1139.htm

If you have further questions, please contact Student Life.

8. What is the role of the Validator?
Program Validators are responsible for ensuring students participate in the program as stated in the application to the Co-Curricular Record. This includes participation in stated hours, attendance at meetings, and all other applicable criteria to said program.

9. Why can I only apply to one category?
We recognize that programs may have elements that fit a number of categories. Please select the category that fits as the BEST descriptor to your program.

10. I have more questions, where can I go to have them answered?
