This case study examines how a Sports Coaching program transformed professional practice assessment by implementing Instagram portfolios for level 5 students. These students develop contemporary digital skills while consolidating their professional development by creating professional social media profiles that showcase and collated weekly learning activities. The success of this approach is evidenced by strong student engagement, external examiner support, and the assessment's longevity and evolution over eight years.
