Abstract
Due to the diverse nature of the leisure services field, it is important for educators to assist students in developing a format to plan and document their career development paths. Such a format should be designed to assist students in the on-going pre-professional experiences (academic and experiential) to others both inside and outside the profession. The purpose of this article is to present one such method, a portfolio system. The philosophy, make-up and organization of a system is presented along with the pedagogical implications of implementing such a system into a leisure services curriculum.
