The Users Peers
Not appropriate for all types of ePortfolio, but essential for reflective ePortfolios which require reflective discussions with peers.

The Employer
There are some circumstances where an employer may require read-only access to assess progress.

The Public
Particularly important for presentation ePortfolios, however this raised issues regarding copyright and appropriate content.

Some people may be required to view more of the evidence than others. This brings in the issue of ownership and who decides who can see what.
