Abstract
The issue of lack of high quality teachers in America has been solved by teachers' professionalization which means setting up and strengthening both teachers' professional standards and accreditation standards for teacher education.And a scientific system of teacher education and management is the guarantee to the realization of the above-mentioned standards.America's teacher education and management system has three dominant features—standard-orientation,legalization,and decentralization.The implications we can obtain from America's system are as follows: to enforce and improve our teachers' professional standards and the accreditation standards for teacher education is the right basis for implementing teacher education and management;laws and regulations are the foundation by which the system is to be supported and constructed;decentralization is the effective way to administer teacher education and management system.
