Description
Portfolios tell a carefully crafted story to the world about who you are and what you can do. You can organize a collection of artifacts to tell that story.
Share your portfolios as evidence of your skills and future potential. Use them to apply for jobs, promotions, college, to show a transferable skill, and to track your personal development.
You can also create more than one portfolio. With more than one portfolio, you can combine them, or share them separately, to tell different stories about your skills and ambitions.
