EniolaOladokun RE: Discussion – Week 5COLLAPSE

A well-developed portfolio is a chronological, visual representation of your professional growth. The portfolio does not replace your curriculum vitae (CV) or resume, rather it is the supporting documentation that validates what you have stated on your CV. As a nurse scholar, successful branding is crucial to success in this industry and that is what will set you apart from your competitors. For this discussion, I have identified two strategies that will provide further details look at my accomplishments,

First, strategy is to make sure I have a current resume to showcase my education, achievements and to provide some background information. In the article” The use of professional portfolios for career enhancement”, Casey and Egan stated that it is important to include: “Biographical information, Educational background, Employment history, and professional qualification certificates” (Casey & Egan, 2013). This information provides an overview of what I currently have in my resume which includes my education, background and accomplishments which is a great way of introducing yourself to the people. Therefore, another key strategy is to plan on how and what would be the best way to layout all these pieces of documents to achieve the best display of your hard work in an organized and accurate manner.
