Professional Portfolio
A professional Portfolio is a collection of documents that provides evidence of your education,
skill sets, accomplishments, goals, competencies, professional background, your dedication to
life-long learning, and anything else that validates your commitment to your profession. A
professional Portfolio is a tool to help you prepare and plan your career as well as assist you in
role acquisition. Once you complete your Portfolio, much of what you need for the next phase of
your career will already be collected! Additionally, this Portfolio assignment will promote a
process of self-reflection and self-awareness which are necessary components to acquiring a new
professional identity. Once completed, you will be able to identify your strengths and
accomplishments which will help you develop confidence as you transition from the role of a
registered nurse to that of an advanced practice nurse.
