Last thing that's required!

You need to show you can create and manage folders. 

Here is a folder....


In your student portal/ saving bit, you need to create a folder.

Call it - Essential Skills
Inside that create another, call it - IT skills 
Inside it create one more, call it - Blog posts 

Finally screenshot each and every blog post and put the picture into the 'blog post' folder. This proves you have completed all the tasks and shows you can manage folders. 

Thanks.
