“I think effective portfolios put focus on a particular skill set.”

Jodi Sansone
“When I am asked for a portfolio I try to create a theme that is targeted to what my client is looking for. That helps focus my attention and choose projects. For this portfolio have provided a collection of sound board interactions (Part 1) on how to use sound/audio in different ways. The "expert tips" demo provides "insights" for e-learning designers (Part 2).”

“Keep the design simple and easy to navigate. Visit other sites and make notes on what you like. I hope I accomplished that here, select the link to experience.”

“If you're just starting, focus on what you want to showcase—whether it's storyboards, interactive Storyline courses, or documents like course design or high-level analysis. Work on your selected content and seek inspiration from industry experts. Most importantly, take the plunge and get started!”

Ron Katz
“I like the fact that caard.co allows you to build a simple one-page site without cost and they have only a very small indicator at the bottom of the screen that it is them.”
Thierry EMMANUEL
“It's difficult to show our work because previous work belongs to my clients. We can never show previous work that looks exactly like what the customer is looking for. We can't show what our next work will be like for each customer. So, we can only show our skills and a bit of our personality.”

“Once you’ve created your examples, it’s important to understand how users are interacting with them. Google Analytics is easy to add and can be a powerful tool that can be integrated into your Articulate Storyline projects to track engagement.”

“Create interactive demos of your projects. This will allow clients to experience your courses first-hand, going through several slides or parts of modules, making your portfolio more engaging and convincing.”
