Career portfolios are used to plan, organize and document education,
work samples, and skills. People use career portfolios to apply to
jobs, apply to college, get a higher salary, and show transferable skills.
They are more in-depth than a resume and serve as proof of one's skills, abilities,
and future potential. Items that should be included (but are not limited to) are contact
information, work evaluations, sample work (from school or a job), and awards and acknowledgments. Career
portfolios can be printed and placed in a simple three-ring binder with sheet covers or online as an electronic portfolio. Career portfolios are used as a marketing tool in selling oneself for personal
advancement. To graduate from Delaware Tech's business program, you must create both a print portfolio and an electronic portfolio.
