Portfolio Options
There are a number of ways that you can create your professional portfolio. The format you choose will be based on your personal preferences and / or may be determined by the requirements of your employer.
Portfolio Platforms
There are a number of portfolio platforms that have been established to allow you to create a portfolio. I have experimented with a number of them but personally I find them all limiting in some way that doesn't allow me the flexibility I desire. You may, on the other hand find one that suits your needs. If you wish to explore these options here are a few to try. I have kept it to three platforms so as not to overwhelm but if you know a great platform that you think should be included please contact me and I will add it here.

Website Builders
There are many website builders now on the market that don't require you to be a web developer or a master of HTML coding. While it is beneficial to have some understanding of HTML the following examples are all 'drag and drop' website builders. This website has been built using one of these. There are plenty of tutorials that show you how to build a basic website. I have made a series of small videos showing you how to build a Weebly website but most of these skills can be transferred to other platforms.

Creating an eBook or digital book
There are a number of ways that you can create digital books that are still based on 'good old' paper-based documents (particularly useful for certificates that need to be scanned etc.). All of the following allow you to create PDFs which can be printed if needed or downloaded as a digital book.
