Welcome to my professional portfolio for my program – Bachelor of Business/ Information and Knowledge Management at RMIT University. This portfolio is a major assessment task for ISYS2443 unit, which is one of the last units to be undertaken in this program. The aim of this unit is to give the chance to students to demonstrate the skills, knowledge and capabilities they gained throughout studying this program, and reflecting on their individual experience. This portfolio is broken down into 6 main pages. Each page represents one capability of the program capabilities, listing all the courses that helped me achieve that particular capability. The 7th page represents my 3 industry placements and what capabilities I achieved doing each placement. Learning leaps represent particular experiences where I discovered something useful for my career and/or studies as well as things about me that I hadn't known before. Under each main page of this portfolio, you will find a compilation of the major assessment tasks I was required to complete during my program, and which strengthened my knowledge in many areas of the business as well as IKM studies. You will also find a reflection about each course I’ve studied and how it helped me in gaining the skills and knowledge I needed about Information Management.

BP140 aims to provide students with the proper skills in the information and knowledge management area and the relevant technologies associated with it. It also aims to teach students the basics of other business-related studies in order to be knowledgeable in different areas other than the major of IKM. Reading the program details and the kind of courses to be undertaken during the program, I thought it would help me not only gain the proper knowledge and skills in IKM, but in different business-related areas like marketing, economics, law, statistics, accounting and other areas. This program also overlaps a lot with other business majors, which will help me get credit points if I decide to study another major in the future.

Throughout my experience undertaking BP140, I believe that one of the main strengths of this program is teaching students a variety of different technologies that nowadays have become one of the essential skills that any employer seeks when employing a person. By the end of this program, I realised how much IT skills I have now compared to 3 years ago, and how much useful skills my CV actually has upon the completion of this program.

The BP140 program is developed with a set of capabilities that students are supposed to develop upon completing the degree:
 * Interpersonal and Communication Capability
 * Information Literacy Capability
 * Technological Capability
 * Reflective Analytical Practice
 * Socially and Culturally Responsible Practice
 * Responsive Practice
