The term for a
collection of works by an
individual or
group. It is often used in reference to a group of
collective work regardless of whether or not the works reside in one
case.
Applicants for certain jobs and academic programs may be asked to supply a portfolio of their work so that their prospective employer or educational institution may see examples of their work and experience.
Common professions that make use of portfolios include writers, journalists, artists and musicians.
