A nursing portfolio: documenting your professional journey.
Professional profiling may enhance one's career development. The opportunities to use a current profile abound, and include applying for a new position, a leadership role in a professional society, a scholarship or an award, or career advancement. The true professional updates the profile on an annual basis, emphasizing significant personal and professional accomplishments. Documentation and validation of one's credentials may require substantial effort-but such effort is worth it. Profiling is a step toward recognition and success.
