## Description of a Portfolio

The portfolios are toolkits pulling together high-quality information and resources for evidence-based assessment. The goal is to make the material easy for clinicians to find and use. Each covers the following topics:
* Benchmark rates in different settings,
* Diagnostic criteria and considerations (ICD-11 diagnostic criteria),
* Assessment resources, emphasizing the best free options when possible
* Diagnostic interviews,
* Progress measures, and
* Outcome measures.
The materials also include administration information, psychometric data, scoring information, and links to the measures themselves. They are grouped as:
* Screening tools and assessments that can be done ahead of the first appointment
* Diagnostic interviews and deeper, focused assessments, often done during the assessment session
* Progress and Outcome measures, designed to measure change over the course of treatment
