Global competence is a term that refers to the knowledge, skills,

and other capacities used to examine, appreciate, understand, and

use local, national, and international elements to navigate the world
successfully. Global competence is the skills, values, and
behaviors that prepare young people to thrive in a more diverse,
interconnected world. In a rapidly changing world, the ability to be
engaged citizens and collaborative problem solvers who are ready
for the workforce is essential. Being globally competent is to to
contribute to the valuable and ongoing debate regarding the
definition of global citizenship and global competency, this study
proposes a definition developed through the use of a Delphi
Technique involving human resource managers at top
transnational corporations, senior international educators, United
Nations officials, inter-cultural trainers, and foreign government
officers. Being globally competent means the teacher already know
the different cultures in different countries. Must be able to convey
knowledge about in a certain country without discriminating others.
This new reality helps us more clearly define the role that education
must play in preparing all students for success in an interconnected
world. The concept of global competence articulates the
knowledge and skills students need in the 21st century.

Global competence starts by being aware, curious, and interested

in learning about the world and how it works. Globally competent
students ask and explore critical questions and "researchable"
problems—problems for which there may not be one right answer,
but can be systematically engaged intellectually and emotionally.
Their questions are globally significant, questions that address
important phenomena and events that are relevant world wide—in
their own community and in communities across the globe.

Globally competent students can articulate the significance of their

questions and know how to respond to these questions by
identifying, collecting, and analyzing credible information from a
variety of local, national and international sources, including those
in multiple languages. They can connect the local to the global, for
example, by explaining how a local issue like their school recycling
program exemplifies a global process far beyond their backyards.

From analysis to synthesis to evaluation, they can weigh and

integrate evidence to create a coherent response that considers
multiple perspectives and draws defensible conclusions—be it an
essay, a problem or design solution, a scientific explanation or a
work of art.

Being globally competent teacher means you undergo enough

studies and have enough skills. It is one of the ways to
communicate and interact with other people in countries.
