SMU’s Co-Curricular Transcript wins Gold at QS Reimagine Education Awards 2025
- Singapore Management University (SMU) has been awarded the Gold Award in the Nurturing Employability category at the QS Reimagine Education Awards 2025, in recognition of its groundbreaking Co-Curricular Transcript (CCT), a pioneering University-wide initiative that makes visible the skills and competencies students develop through experiential, out-of-classroom learning. The win underscores the CCT’s innovation, real-world impact, and scalability. Developed by the Office of the Dean of Students (ODOS), the Co-Curricular Transcript is a first-of-its-kind initiative in Singapore that complements the academic transcript by formally documenting students’ engagement in co-curricular activities and the skills developed through these experiences. At the heart of the initiative is the Integrated Co-Curricular Management System (ICMS), a digital platform that supports participation tracking, guided reflection and mentor feedback. Through this system, students are guided to make intentional co-curricular choices, reflect meaningfully on their experiences, and translate learning into demonstrable competencies. The photo featured the core team from ODOS and Integrated Information Technology Services behind the CCT and the ICMS.

First awarded to the graduating Class of 2025, the CCT reflects SMU’s long-standing philosophy that meaningful learning occurs not only in the classroom, but also through leadership roles, community service, internships, student organisations and other experiential opportunities. This video presents how the Co-Curricular Transcript is transforming the way SMU students document and articulate their learning with the support of the Integrated Co-Curricular Management System (ICMS).
