    This study aimed to develop mathematical modelling competencies of mathematics teachers with the training carried out in a learning environment prepared by the mathematical modelling approach. The participants were 5 volunteer mathematics teachers each working in public schools. The study was designed by a certain process and firstly, teachers were interviewed and their preliminary information about mathematical modelling was obtained. Then, an 11-week mathematical modelling teaching process was carried out in a learning environment prepared by mathematical modelling. It was revealed that the training carried out in the learning environment in which today's technology was included improved the mathematical modelling competencies of mathematics teachers to a great extent.
