Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to show a training framework for intercultural education from the perspective of global competence for educational professionals in formal and non-formal settings. The theoretical background is education for critical intercultural citizenship in the framework of global competence and connectivism. The training framework is conceived through a community of professional practice models of intercultural education through web environments, social networks, and face-to-face workshops. The focus is on the critical and reflective practice and the perspective taking to explore beliefs about global and intercultural education, to become aware of the quality of interactions in educational contexts in cultural diversity, and to adopt didactic strategies for the implementation of a curriculum aimed at contributing to a global education that meets the needs and characteristics of the 21st century.
