PortfolioA portfolio is a collection of professional looking documents that illustrate and substantiate your work experience, accomplishments, and educational training. These documents can include in-class projects, reports, projects, awards, letters of thanks, transcripts, and photos.The following steps outline how to build a portfolio:Step 1: Collect your documents We recommend that you create a "ME" file. For this purpose, you can use your career file if you have one (for more about building a career file see Identifying Qualifications), or you can create a new ME file altogether. Keep it close to you and add any documents that you might want to use in your portfolio in the future. Include:TranscriptsDiplomasDegreesAwardsLetters of recommendation or thanksReports writtenProjects developedIllustrations, photographs, etc.All documents and illustrations should be in good condition -- if they are not, get new or clean copies. If you have some documents on disk, print a copy, label the disk, and include it in the "ME" file. Don't edit anything out at this point; you can do that later.Step 2: Edit the content Once you've collected enough material, start sorting through it. Organize it into natural categories; for example, group all reports together, and group all educational documents (e.g., transcripts, diplomas, awards) together. Once you've grouped all the material, go through each group and decide which pieces best represent your abilities. You should look for quality and variety to show employers your capabilities. This is the toughest part of building your portfolio!Step 3: Organize the content Decide how you want your documents to be organized in the portfolio. We recommend that your résumé be the first document that employers see. After that, decide if you will present documents to highlight technical abilities, thematic phases, or creative potential. You may decide to emphasize your educational qualifications -- if so, put that section next. You may also decide that the quality of your projects is excellent and you want to emphasize it -- if so, put a projects section next. Continue until you are satisfied with the order of the materials.Step 4: Assemble the portfolio Before you start inserting your documents into the sleeves of your portfolio, decide how it will finally look. We recommend that you include a table of contents for each section. We also recommend that you include page dividers to clearly identify each section. Ensure that your content completely fills the portfolio. There should be no blank pages at the end. If there are, add work, spread the work out more evenly, or remove empty sleeves.Step 5: Field test your portfolio Once you've assembled the portfolio, field test it by showing it to some family, friends, or teachers. Make sure that they are people whose opinion you trust. Ask them to look through the portfolio and give you their impressions aboutthe content,the overall appearance,its organization, andits completeness.Make any revisions necessary, and field test the portfolio again.Step 6: Keep it up to date A portfolio will be useful only if you maintain it. Keep using your "ME" file to collect documents. On a regular basis (every 2 months or so), go through the file, and transfer any relevant documents collected in it to your portfolio. Go through your portfolio at the same time, and remove or replace any documents that do not represent your current abilities or needs.Internet Resources on PortfoliosCareer Portfolios: Telling Your Lifework Storyhttp://changingtimes.com/0598jo15.htmAn interesting article brought to you by Changing Times: The Labour Market Information Webzine for the Career Practitioner.Career Tips: Portfolioshttp://www.bsu.edu/careers/foliotip.html
