Educators are the catalyst in shaping the knowledge workers of the future and their competence in using IT is crucial in order to uphold tH1s task. The use of computer technology in education poses new teaching challenges and many educators are expected to be able to use computer for instruction and learning, management and also for action research (Forcier 1999, Warschaeur and Kern 2000). These new challenges and demand posit by the utilisation of technology calls for this study to identify the IT competency standard for Malaysian language educators. This paper will firstly discuss the need for language educators to be IT competent and describe a research-based IT standard for language teachers that involves not just information literacy that is the ability to find, organise and make use of information but also ability to read and write, to conduct consultation, assessment, and communication online.
