A professional portfolio is one of the tools that may be used by teachers to assess students' professional competences; besides, it may be used by students to search for a job once they graduate. This article analyses the use of professional portfolios in translator training. Details are given of the contents of the portfolio and the criteria used for assessing the outcome of activities designed to develop professional competence. The results of a survey conducted to find out the students' and teachers' opinions on the use of professional portfolios as a new assessment instrument are also shown.
