Incorporation of electronic portfolios into education is becoming an established best practice. In health professions education, e-portfolio development enhances student learning experience by facilitating self assessment and critical thinking about clinical practice. E-portfolio systems can be used to gather longitudinal outcomes data, reducing the time expended in gathering information for accreditation.
