Co-Curricular Record
The Co-Curricular Record (CCR) is a personalized record of university-approved and facilitated activities in which students have been involved.
It will help students find opportunities to learn outside of the classroom and then will capture those activities, and the learning outcomes derived from them, on an official document that the student can use in furthering their employment and educational goals.
The Co-Curricular Record document is an unofficial record for non-credit bearing experiences that will be tracked through MyPNWLife. The badges earned from the experience can be added to your LinkedIn profile.

Co-Curricular Badges and Levels
Connect. Engage. Roar.
Each Co-Curricular badge is made up of three smaller levels, called sub-badges. These sub-badges show a student’s progress as they get more involved. Together, these levels help guide students step-by-step as they grow their skills and experiences.
- Connect is the introductory level. At this stage, students build awareness by exploring opportunities, attending events and learning about resources related to the badge area. It emphasizes exposure and initial participation.
- Engage represents active involvement. Students begin applying what they have learned by participating more consistently, developing skills and contributing to organizations, programs or experiences. This level highlights practice and demonstrated growth.
- Roar is the highest level of achievement. Students demonstrate mastery through leadership, initiative or significant contributions. At this level, students often take on advanced roles, create or lead initiatives, and showcase their learning through tangible outcomes.
Together, these sub-badges provide a structured pathway that moves students from awareness (Connect) to application (Engage) to mastery and leadership (Roar), helping them intentionally grow their skills and experiences throughout their time at PNW.
