Dental Hygiene Students - Step 1: Creating your Portfolio

 


As part of the Dental Hygiene Program requirements you are asked to create a digital portfolio. 

Your portfolio is to be created using Microsoft Office's tool called OneNote. OneNote is like a digital notebook where you can create sections and pages of content. Upload documents, images, video and more. 

Creating your portfolio is a 3-step process. The directions below will walk you through Step 1, Creating your Portfolio.
