What is the听Co-Curricular Record (CCR)?

The 麻豆AV听Co-Curricular Record (CCR) is a document that recognizes a student's involvement in learning opportunities outside the classroom.

Any student currently registered at 麻豆AV can听听with 麻豆AV credentials to view, customize, and print their CCR.听Students can also听听be sent to a potential employer or educational institution.听

The CCR can be a useful addition to your CV/resume or graduate/professional school applications.听麻豆AV's CCR is composed of five sections听- to view a sample CCR, please consult our Sample Co-Curricular Record.听

Getting an Internship Recognized on your CCR

The Arts Internship Office (AIO) is only听able to give approval for the third section:听Enriched Educational Opportunities听(non-credit, experiential opportunities approved by Faculties).听

Enriched Educational Opportunities (EEOs) are high quality mobility or work experience opportunities that take place outside of the classroom; they foster self-development and can help students transition successfully to the workplace or graduate studies.听Eligibility Criteria for Faculty of Arts Internships

The Faculty of Arts Internship Office will determine which EEO opportunities shall be eligible to be recognized as an EEO on the Co-Curricular Record (CCR). These may include unpaid (or insufficiently paid to cover cost outlay) internships and research internship opportunities, depending on faculty-based priorities. They may be in-person or remote, local (off-campus and not at 麻豆AV-affiliated offices) within Canada or abroad.

Faculty of Arts Student eligibility听is determined as follows:

• All steps should be completed well in advance of the start of your internship. No approval will be granted after you have started your internship.
• Be enrolled in an undergraduate Faculty of Arts degree (B.A., B.A & Sc., BSW, B.Th.) and be returning to the Faculty of Arts in the same program the semester following your internship.
• Please note the Arts Internship Office will not support fee based and third-party internship opportunities:听see Ineligibility听criteria listed here.
• Once the internship is completed, have proof of such of completion sent to aio [at] mcgill.ca.

Please note that internship hours during the Fall or Winter semester should normally be around 150 hours, 10-15 hours per week (maximum of 20 hours). Students who choose to do an internship during Fall/Winter semester, are encouraged to meet with an Arts Advisor prior to start of internship, to help better plan academic terms and ensure the internship does not interfere with your academic study.

Steps to apply for a Co-Curricular Record (CCR) Approval Letter

Please note: All steps should be completed well in advance of the start of your internship.
No approval will be granted after you have started your internship.

1. Check if the internship meets the requirements:听

   An internship is a short-term, hands-on, supervised work experience with a professional organization. It provides the student with an invaluable opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge acquired in the classroom to real world problems and enables the student to broaden his or her understanding of the field.听An internship is more than a part-time job or volunteer experience; it includes:

• Specific learning objectives designed to increase the student鈥檚 knowledge
• Training to hone existing skills and develop additional ones
• Supervision to guide and mentor the intern
• Through their internship, the student is able both to expand their horizons and to engage in a meaningful collaboration with their corporate or community organization for their mutual benefit.
• Please note the Arts Internship Office will not support fee based and third-party internship opportunities:听see Ineligibility criteria listed here.

2. Obtain a written confirmation of your internship from your host organization.
   • The written confirmation must听include听learning goals and outcomes, mentorship plan, hours per week, start and end date, and remuneration.
