ePORTFOLIO TUTORIAL

CREATING A PORTFOLIO In the ePortfolio space, you create portfolios where you can collect your work. This might include images, videos, documents, presentations, transcripts, web links, and even audio recordings. You can create a portfolio for many reasons, but at Capella, the most common types of portfolios are:

• Course Assignments: An assignment requires you to create or collect artifacts that are placed in a portfolio.

• Dissertations: The portfolio is used as a place to save and organize work and throughout your program that might be helpful for your dissertation.

• Capstones: The portfolio is used as a place to display work that demonstrates completion of licensure or capstone requirements.

• Professional Use: Work is collected in a portfolio for use in professional development or to be used during job searches. A link to the portfolio can then be added to a resume or a LinkedIn profile to showcase the work.

Click Create Your First Portfolio or Create Portfolio to set up a new ePortfolio.
