So pls help to know abt the qualification and where should I join to get that course or certificate to be a qualified teacher.

You need to be a fully qualified teacher (as in you need qualified teacher status). You'll need to do a PGCE at an English (or Welsh) university. Those courses take one year full-time and can only be done on-site, not by distance or part-time.

I have a question can the PGCE be used in schools internationally for example, my cousin is doing her PGCE now, after it is completed can she use this qualification abroad to work? I thought it was only useful in Britian and told her so but now I think I have been mistaken?

there are some schools in some countries that will accept a PGCE. advice normally given is to contact schools in the country she wants to teach and see what they say

Daydreamer: I thought it was only useful in Britian and told her so but now I think I have been mistaken? A PGCE will be recognised by pretty much any international school round the world which runs the international baccalaureate or English GCSE/A levels. A PGCE also gives qualified teacher status in any EU member state by mere operation of law.

I will be a licensed teacher of Mathematics in the United States in the near future and have a fairly solid resume for a recent graduate. Does my certification here count as the equivilant of a PGCE? I will have a BSc of Mathematics with a teaching endorsement and be certified to teach in the United States.
