ePortfolios can be built up individually or collaboratively Under the first tab, My CV, the user will find his/her informational page. This can also be seen as a basic introductory page for the personal CV. Materials, so-called artifacts, can be collected and published selectively using views Portfolio users can directly upload their own data via file-upload, add links to other external websites (i.e. social media resources such as YouTube etc.) or add some notes in their portfolios. Artifacts can be added within categories, new categories can be created. Learning products can be linked to competences (see Exabis Competence Grids) The Exabis ePortfolio module can be associated with the module Exabis Competence Grid, used for adaptive learning scenarios and enables competence association with portfolios. Competencies can be added by clicking "choose competences associated with your upload”.

As with any customization, it is recommended that you have a good backup of your Moodle site before attempting to install contributed code. While those contributing code make every effort to provide the best code that they can, using contributed code nevertheless entails a certain degree of risk as contributed code is not as carefully reviewed and/or tested as the Moodle core code. Hence, use this block at your own risk.
In August 2011 exabis ePortfolio was associated with Exabis Competence Grid Block. This enables ePortfolio-users to categorize their artefacts with educational standards. These standards are linked to Moodle via the exabis-competencies Block with an associated XML-file. In April 2011, gtn gmbh (https://gtn-solutions.com) updated exabis ePortfolio to be compatible with Moodle 2.0-versions. This was done with kind support of Gerente de Sistemas y Tecnologías, UNIVERSIDAD TECNOLÓGICA DE CHILE – INACAP. In version 3.2.4 views were introduced. Originally exabis ePortfolio was developed in the year 2007 with kind support of the Federal Ministry of Education in Austria. It was then certified as the first Moodle-Block that was reviewed by the Moodle-core team (Peter Skoda).
