Abstract
Portfolios are increasingly used in professional education, not least in courses for new academic staff. This study looks at the portfolio marking practices over eight intakes on a Postgraduate Certificate programme and sets out to analyse variations between different markers. It concludes that the main problems arise from the standardisation of the marking, rather than its reliability.
