	%X Recently, the interest of globalization in the field of 
teacher education has increased. In the U.S., the government is trying 
to enhance the quality of education through a global approach in 
education. To do so, the schools in the U.S. are recruiting teachers with 
global capability from countries like Korea where competent teachers 
are being trained. Meanwhile, in the case of Korea, although excellent 
teachers have been cultivated every year, due to a low birth rate it is 
not easy to become a domestic teacher. To solve the trouble that the 
two countries are facing, the study first examines the demand and 
necessity of globalization in the field of teacher education between 
Korea and the U.S. Second, we propose a new project, called the 
‘Global Teachers University (GTU)’ program to satisfy the demands 
of both countries. Finally, we provide its implications to build the 
future educational cooperation for teacher training in a global context.
