raduate medical educators may struggle to effectively document their contributions in teaching, education scholarship, leadership, and service in a way that accurately represents their work and facilitates timely promotion. Although it has been decades since Boyer and Glassick proposed a definition for scholarship that extended beyond research, criteria for excellence, and a differentiation between scholarship of teaching and scholarly teaching activities, institutions have variably incorporated these principles into formal promotion and tenure processes. 1,2 In addition to a traditional curriculum vitae (CV), educators should also develop and maintain an educator's portfolio (EP), which complements the CV and expands upon activities such as teaching, mentoring, academic administration, educational program development and implementation, service, and leadership. [3][4][5][6] EPs help make education work explicit for promotions committees, and they can also promote educational reflection, evaluation and reassessment, professional development, and goal setting. 5,[7][8][9] This perspective provides evidence-based recommendations and practical tips for graduate medical educators seeking to develop and maintain EPs.
