Get Started

Welcome to UNE Portfolios!

You’re probably here because you want to build your ePortfolio and aren’t sure how to begin. We break it down into two steps.

Step One – Your ePortfolio Site

If you’re in a course using ePortfolio, your professor has probably already arranged for you to have an ePortfolio site. To edit your site, look in your email inbox (check the junk/spam folder!) for a message with “New UNEPortfolios Site” in the subject field. Follow the instructions in that email, move to step two, and get building! If you don’t have the email, you can check to see if you have a site by typing yourUNEusername+.uneportfolio.org into your browser (include numbers if they are part of your user name). If you get the uneportfolio.org page, you do not have a site yet.

If you’re not in a course using ePortfolio, just head over to the Support page, request an ePortfolio site, and we’ll hook you up! Or, drop by SASC. Click here to see the SASC workshop calendar.

Note: ePortfolio sites are not connected to your Okta log-in, so your Okta password will not work for your ePortfolio site.

We offer one-to-one support in-person or via Zoom. Go to TutorTrac to check our drop-in hours at SASC Commons (Biddeford) or Proctor Hall (Portland) or to schedule an appointment. We usually offer morning and evening drop-in hours and some weekend drop-in hours.

Step Two – Build Your ePortfolio

We have a bunch of self-guided WordPress help in the ePortfolio area of Tutorials, and they’ll help you with the technical aspects of WordPress, the backbone of UNE Portfolios.

Begin with our launch sequence. The sequence includes video tutorials on how to adjust settings (like time zone and site visibility), add an About page (and ideas for content on it), and add post or pages. Also learn about the value of ePortfolio to you as a learner and a professional.

We recommend using our curated tutorials as you continue to add content.
