Build a Personal Learning Portfolio

A list of finished courses proves you clicked through videos. It doesn't show what you can now do. This explains the difference, defines the four parts every portfolio entry needs, and helps you build something useful for career moves rather than a trophy shelf. For anyone learning steadily who wants a record that works for them.
