Student involvement through peer assessment can have important benefits for the development of competences in initial teacher education. Therefore, the aims of this research are: (i) to find out the characteristics of the peer assessment processes experienced by students during their training and their evaluation of these processes; (ii) to value their perception of the usefulness of using peer assessment processes for the development of teaching competences after a peer assessment experience; and (iii) to value their perception of the usefulness of using peer assessment processes for the development of assessment competences after a peer assessment experience. To this end, a case study was conducted with 10 participants in 2 teacher education subjects. In each subject, three workshops were held in which students had to peer assess the performance of their peers and give them feedback. The information was collected through a semi-structured interview at the end of the subjects. The results show that the students had hardly any experience of this kind, although they valued these processes positively for their learning, although they also encountered difficulties and uncertainties due to their lack of experience. Finally, they also emphasise the importance of carrying out these processes in initial training in order to develop assessment competence and to be able to transfer this learning to their future work context.
