Creating a Network
Portfolium allows students to build a network of current and former collaborators — from friends, classmates, and colleagues to people in industries, companies, or roles they are interested in. They can tag fellow classmates, friends, and colleagues on work they completed together. Students can also ask professors, advisors, and managers to reflect on and document their experiences and work.
Students can customize their URL and username to make their profile easy to find and include it on their resume, website, personal blog, business cards, and social media, such as LinkedIn and Twitter. Additionally, students can connect their social media accounts to their Portfolium account to quickly and easily connect with their friends and network, log in using those credentials, and share their Portfolium entries across their social media networks.
