Abstract :
This paper argues that the conventional establishment of levels of beginning, intermediate and upper intermediate for teachers´ IT competency based on IT skill-sets is not appropriate in enabling teachers for IT in education. Instead an Information-oriented model pegging on the central role of education is proposed.
