In a crowded age, it is essential to prove your worth to your potential employers or clients. While a resume is an excellent document to have, it only provides a simple list of what you are capable of. A work portfolio allows you to demonstrate your ability in your resume, enabling you to SHOW them rather than just talk about them. This is why a work portfolio is important.
What does it take to build a great work portfolio?
A good portfolio is not about its look or length. It is about understanding and communicating your value. This is what most people don't get about portfolios. Over the lectures we have in the course, I will take you on a long and bumpy journey. In this journey, we will:
Discover our own purpose and where we want to go.
Find out where we stand in relation to where we want to be.
Figure out how we can close those gaps.
Find out what elements you should include in your portfolio.
Build your first professional and concise portfolio - using a provided template.
To go on this journey, we will provide you with a practical worksheet that you use to build up your skillset and build a great portfolio.
