How can you demonstrate your technical skills to a potential employer, supervisor, funder, or collaborator? During this workshop we will discuss digital (online) portfolios, which complement your CV/resume by showcasing your coding, data visualization, data analysis, mapmaking, and other skilled technical abilities. We will discuss various purposes for digital portfolios, the components of a digital portfolio, methods and tools for creating one, and considerations for carefully curating and presenting your work in an engaging manner.

Learning Objectives: By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to: identify personally relevant reasons to create a digital portfolio; describe basic components of a digital portfolio; identify tools for creating and curating their digital portfolio; and find examples of digital portfolios related to their career goals (programmers, data scientists, geospatial scientists, etc.).

Prerequisites: This workshop is intended for researchers across the University of California system. There are no prerequisites for this workshop. Recommended: Please have an updated copy of your CV or resume for reference, and a list of recent projects or skills (if applicable).
