Professional Portfolio

Assignment: Professional Portfolio Ongoing development and maintenance of a professional portfolio helps you to document the experiences you accumulate as a student and a practitioner. In Week 2, you began focusing on portfolio development by collecting artifacts from your previous coursework in this Master of Science in Nursing program. While the assembly and development of your portfolio will be self-paced, it is recommended you work on your portfolio weekly so you may successfully complete this requirement. Should you have any questions related to your Professional Portfolio, please reach out to your Instructor. Continue to assemble and develop your professional portfolio. Refer to the portfolio-related documents introduced in Week 2 (i.e., Student Guide to Creating the Final Professional Portfolio and Professional Portfolio Template). There is no Assignment submission required for this week. By Day 3 Learning Resources Required Readings (click to expand/reduce) Boswell, C., & Cannon, S. (2016). Future perspectives. In S.
