A professional portfolio is a tool that benefits administrators, teachers and directors in the child care industry. CCEI800 introduces early childhood professionals to the practice of developing a professional portfolio as a means of enhancing professional growth. The portfolio provides evidence of professional skills and experience. Furthermore, potential employers appreciate and respect the time and effort it takes to develop and maintain a comprehensive portfolio. This course teaches students how to create a portfolio, what to include, and how to arrange it, as well as the purpose and characteristics of an accompanying reflective statement.

"The creation and maintenance of a professional portfolio increases caregivers' credibility by showcasing their abilities and readiness to nurture and educate young children.
