he quality of teacher training is closely linked with the quality of the education of a country. This partnership is particularly important when talking about the incorporation of information and communication technologies (ict) in educational environment, which must be adapted to the the twenty-first century context in which the technology has virtually permeated all interaction areas of the people.
In this sense, teachers are a key part in teaching and learning processes for the acquisition of skills in keeping with this knowledge era. Due the importance attached to them, this article examines the supply of international cooperation in the Ibero-american context in relation to teacher training, and the central question which guides is: How can we ensure that the programs, projects and initiatives of the ibero-american cooperation in the teacher training and ict field will be implemented and have a positive impact on the Ibero-american educational context?
To answer such question, the opportunities, scope and limitations of this cooperation are considered so that, as a domino effect, the international strategies for training teachers in the field will constitute the pattern to achieve the internationally agreed goals in education
