Comprehensive Learner Record- Student

What is Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR)?

Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR) is a summary of selected experiential accomplishments throughout your time at Temple University. The CLR seeks to illuminate your interests and reflect your cumulative Temple experience based on your engagement in co-curricular activities. The  CLR is issued as a digital webpage (Digital CLR).

How is a CLR different from a Transcript?

While the official transcript focuses on courses and grades based on course registration, the CLR is created from your holistic record sourced from multiple systems: HandShake, Suitable, OwlConnect (Campus Labs), and others. The CLR uses visual elements to capture experiences that define your skills and highlights non-academic experiences.

 

How should I make use of my CLR?

Share

Share your Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR) on LinkedIn to enhance your professional profile and showcase your achievements to employers and professional networks.

Send

Include a link to your Digital CLR in your resume, cover letters, or professional emails. 

The CLR link is available on the Digital CLR webpage for students who selected “Yes” to the option, “Do you want to make your CLR (Comprehensive Learner Record) visible to others?” while opting in through the Comprehensive Learner Record Application. If “No” was selected, the CLR will remain private and accessible only to the student.   Update your sharing preference at any time to make your CLR shareable or private.

 

What should I do to have my experiences reflected on the CLR?

The details of your CLR will come from multiple systems. For some experiences that are presented on the CLR, you do not have to take any additional action. However, there are few experiences that will require your attention.  Review the CLR contents to see which section requires your attention.
