This article presents the results of a study focused on the development of self - perceived practical skills by Pedagogy majors. The objective is to know if the level of self-perception in the acquisition of general and specific competences for the exercise of the pedagogical profession varies after the accomplishment of the teacher training period and verify the existence of significant differences in the student´s self-perception according to the variables: year of studies completion, academic performance, specialization enrollment and type of internship institution. The methodology used is quantitative, the research design is of the pre-experimental type, with application of pre-test and post-test. A descriptive-inferential method was used, through the study of electronic opinion surveys. The results reveal that the future teachers´ evaluation of the acquisition of different competences in the Degree Program in Pedagogy is very positive, both before and after the period of external teaching training; as well as the existence of significant differences according to the studied variables.

Keywords : professional practices; professional competence; higher education.
