A professional port folio is different than a resume. A résumé lists all of your accomplishments at each organization that you have worked. A portfolio on the other hand, is a collection of work accomplishments and shows examples of what you are able to do for a potential employer.
Portfolios have a twofold purpose. Primarily, they are used to assess your goals and accomplishments over a specific period of time. Secondly, they are created to address a particular audience that you want to impress beyond what is described about you in a resume. Included in the portfolio are samples of your past accomplishments of what you can do for a prospective employer reflecting you particular skills set .This may include writing samples, physical product samples, inventions, accomplishments, etc.
In this two and one half hour workshop you will be able to learn how to assimilate and exhibit a professional portfolio to a prospective employer. Alternately, you could learn how to use a professional portfolio to apply for a promotion or more challenging opportunities with your existing employer.
