Introduction:

the evaluation process of the professional performance of the guide-interpreter for the care of deafblind people is a priority of the National Association of the Deaf of Cuba (ANSOC) and the National Centre for the Development of the Deaf (CENDSOR), being declared since 2016, as one of the main lines of improvement.

Objective:

to design a methodology for the evaluation of the professional performance of the guide-interpreter for the care of deafblind people.

Methods:

pedagogical study where theoretical, empirical and statistical methods were used, where 12 guide-interpreters, 85 cases of deafblind people in the province of Pinar del Río and eight specialists in the care of deafblind people were selected intentionally, in the period from 2018 to 2021.

Results:

the study revealed the inadequacies of the evaluation of the professional performance of the guide-interpreter for the care of deafblind people in the guide-interpreter service regarding the evaluation as a process, the use of methods and techniques, dimensions and indicators for its implementation. A methodology was designed as a possible solution.

Conclusions:

the evaluation of the methodology in practice confirmed its theoretical, methodological and attitudinal value, confirming higher levels in the evaluation of the professional performance of the guide-interpreter for the care of deafblind people.
