  In this interactive workshop series, you'll create a portfolio that effectively highlights your skills and achievements. Whether you’re updating an existing portfolio or starting from scratch, this workshop will provide insights and practical tips to help you stand out in your field. 

  We’ll cover the essentials of creating a career portfolio, from choosing a suitable format to effectively presenting your work. 

  
  

  Outcomes

  • Session 1: Select three artifacts to present in a portfolio related to your current and/or target job.
  • Session 2: Draft three write-ups for your artifacts. Choose a format for your portfolio. Create a low-fidelity prototype of your portfolio. 
    
  • Session 3: Implement your plans to improve your low-fidelity prototype and write-ups.
    
  • Session 4: Implement your plans to improve your high-fidelity prototype for use in professional settings.
