The document discusses LearnScope PD, an e-portfolio professional development program conducted in 2007. The program trained staff to build e-portfolios using WebCT to replace a paper-based skills passport system and help teach employability skills. Researchers looked at how other universities like QUT were using e-portfolios and developed a framework based on models from the UK, US, and Australia. The professional development program helped teachers deconstruct competencies and identify the employability skills within them.
