In order to earn promotion to the next module or graduation you need to complete, submit, and defend your portfolio.

A submission summarizes your accomplishments in these key areas:

• Individual
• Team
• Community

Find a sample portfolio in SAMPLE.markdown in this repo. You can copy the content of STRUCTURE.markdown as a starting point, then fill in your own content.

The file should be saved in the format "date-name-completing.markdown" where:

• date is the last day of the module in compressed year/month/day, like 20150831
• name is your first and last name like jeff_casimir
• completing is the module that you're completing, like m4

So a complete filename might look like 20150831-jeff_casimir-m4.markdown. This file needs to be stored in a directory portfolios/students/your_name where your_name is like jeff_casimir.

If you were completing Module 4 on August 31, 2015 and your name was Jeff Casimir, your portfolio submission would reside at the following location: portfolios/students/jeff_casimir/20150831-jeff_casimir-m4.markdown.

A pull request with your submission must be made at least 12 hours before your scheduled defense. Non-conforming formats, filenames, or directories will be rejected and your defense rescheduled.
