Overview of Portfolios

With Elentra Portfolios, administrators set up portfolio containers with defined learner-advisor relationships.  Within the portfolio container, administrators create tasks for learners to complete & have reviewed by their advisor(s). Learners can submit portfolio data in text format, by uploading a file, or completing an Elentra form.
