A portfolio is a collection of your work that you use to show your skills and accomplishments. Increasingly, a portfolio can be an important tool in tracking your educational and career accomplishments, and in demonstrating them to a potential employer. A Web portfolio allows you to easily design your own Web page, store examples of your work and information about yourself, and control who can access the information.

Students use a portfolio to store examples of their work, including papers, projects, and artwork. Professionals use a portfolio to store examples of their work to share with potential clients or employers. Starting now to build a portfolio will enable you to demonstrate your skills and accomplishments more effectively in the future.

The Minnesota e-folio system enables anyone living in Minnesota or attending school in Minnesota to create a personal portfolio for free. If you can use the Web and are familiar with a word processing program, you can build your own portfolio! It is very easy to use, providing design templates, examples, and suggestions for building your portfolio. Your portfolio can be as simple or complex as you want it to be.

Visit the Minnesota e-folio Web site to build or update your own portfolio.
