The use of professional portfolios, comprised of a wide variety of materials and evidence to profile the scope and depth of a clinician's practice competence, is gaining popularity. The usual methods of showing professional competence via paper and pencil/computerized testing, oral presentations, or performance observations provide a picture of competence at a given point in time based on didactic content recall. Portfolios present an opportunity for presentation of a larger number of competency evaluation points. Although examinations can be validated with psychometrics, providing accuracy and reliability of evaluation of portfolios is a more complicated matter. This article discusses the experiences of the Credentialing Committee of the International Society of Nurses in Genetics as they created and validated the evaluation of professional portfolios to provide a quality credential for nurses in genetics.
由各种各样的材料和证据组成、用于描述临床医生实践能力范围和深度的专业档案袋的使用正日益普及。通过纸笔/计算机化测试、口头报告或表现观察来展示专业能力的常规方法，基于教学内容回忆呈现出特定时间点的能力状况。档案袋提供了展示更多能力评估点的机会。虽然考试可以通过心理测量学进行验证，但评估档案袋的准确性和可靠性是一个更复杂的问题。本文讨论了国际遗传护士协会认证委员会在创建和验证专业档案袋评估以向遗传领域护士提供高质量认证方面的经验。
