The purposes of this study were to identify the present teachers’ ICT competencies in Pathum Thani basic education schools required by school administrators, determine the utility, feasibility, propriety, and accuracy of ICT competencies, and develop those ICT competencies for teachers into a training program. A mixed methodology using quantitative, qualitative, and four-phased Ethnographic Delphi Futures Research technique was used. Three sample groups included 181 school administrators of basic educational schools, an experts group of twenty, and a participants group of thirty teachers.
