Rise 360 portfolio course - Irish Native Trees

Hi there,

I'm currently working on creating a course as part of my portfolio. Strangely, it seems to be difficult to focus on a course for myself. Maybe it's the lack of deadlines!

If anyone has any feedback, quick wins, recommendations regarding portfolio building, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks!

  • Hi Gary! It looks like you're already on the right track. Having live projects (as opposed to static images) can help you stand out and shows your creativity which doesn't always come through on a resume. You mentioned that it's difficult to focus, which is SO relatable.😊 One thing I've found that helps bring that spark back is to research topics/content that interests you or that you're passionate about and build a course around that. When you feel connected to the content, it can naturally lead you to want to work on it. Just an idea! Also, I want to share this article which has some helpful tips on what to include in your portfolio. I hope that helps you with crafting your portfolio!
