The study aims to develop a scale to identify and measure the early childhood teacher’s competence for global citizenship education. In order to construct the factors of the teacher’s competence for global citizenship education, conceptualization of the competence was made based on the review of literatures, and then the preliminary scale was constructed through 3 time-Delphi survey of 34 expert panels. The content analysis and statistical analysis (content validity, consensus, and convergence) of the data collected through the Delphi survey revealed that the final version of the scale with 2 domains, 5 factors and 33 items was derived. Then, in order to validate the final version of the scale, the tests with early childhood teachers were carried out. The data collected through the final test of 294 early childhood teachers were statistically analyzed through the ratio of content reliability, validity, and reliability. The analysis was confirmed that the scale was a valid and reliable instrument for measuring the early childhood teacher’s competence for global citizenship education. In conclusion, the scale developed in this study consisted of two domains: the competence as a global citizen and the competence as a early childhood teacher to carry out global citizen education for young children. The global citizenship competence consists of 3 factors and 20 items, and the global citizenship education competence for young children consists of 2 factors and 13 items. Lastly, the possibility of using the scale for early childhood teacher education was discussed.
