Toyota launches technical education programme
The auto major Toyota Kirloskar, in conjunction with Toyota Motor Corporation, Japan its nationwide dealer network and CII, has introduced a unique training initiative T-TEP at the CII National Centre Of Excellence, Chhindwara.
TOYOTA KIRLOSKAR Motor Pvt Ltd, in conjunction with Toyota Motor Corporation, Japan its nationwide dealer network and CII, has introduced a unique training initiative - The Toyota Technical Education Programme (T-TEP) – at the CII National Centre Of Excellence, Chhindwara.
Shekar Viswanathan, deputy managing director, Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt Ltd, Jiro Suzuki, general manager, TKM and Pradeep Bhargava, chairman, CII Skill Development Sub Committee and managing director -Cummins Generator Technologies and B S Khargaonkar, chairman, CII Madhya Pradesh State Council and executive director, Force Motors Ltd were present at the occasion.

T-TEP in India is a special training module launched in 2006. In its first year it was introduced in Delhi, at Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Industrial Training Institute followed by three other institutes. So far, 17 institutions have been covered under the programme in a span of four years.

2006: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hubli.
2007: Bangalore, Pune, Cochin, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad
2008: Ghaziabad, Kolkata, Jaipur and Jalandhar
2009: Indore, Mumbai and Delhi

Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt Ltd, with this special training module aims at enhancing the skill sets and employability of the students, at the vocational training institutes in the country. TKM in partnership with CII has customised the T-TEP Programme, to suit the special needs of the rural youth of Chhindwara. Through this customised programme up to 100 students/year will undergo the T-TEP training. T-TEP will support the vocational training institutes in the country to develop highly skilled young talented technicians enabling them to enhance their career in the automotive service industry.
 
Technical manpower currently available in the Indian automotive service industry, is characteristic of low skill levels and is not trained for repair and diagnostics of the latest models of vehicles available in the market. T-TEP hopes to overcome these shortcomings by partnering with vocational training institutes and industry bodies like CII.

Shekar Viswanathan, DMD, Commercial Division, Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt Ltd, commented, “This partnership with CII will enable us to provide the latest automotive service training to the rural youth of Chhindwara and surrounding areas. This will also benefit our dealer fraternity. We wish to expose the students to latest service techniques used in the automotive industry, which will go a long way in enhancing their capabilities and give a boost to their careers.”

In 2009, TKM has partnered with three technical training institutes:
  • Sir C V Raman Industrial Training Institute, Delhi
  • Industrial Training Institute, Nandanagar, Indore
  • Fr Agnel Technical Institute, Bandra (W), Mumbai
The T-TEP curriculum has been customised especially for the CII National Centre of Excellence to suit the needs of the rural youth for short term vocational training to enhance their skills and careers. Toyota’s team of trainer’s worked extensively with the experts from CII to design a curriculum for duration of three months.
 
Toyota has setup classroom and practice facilities essential for a conducive learning environment. Toyota dealerships carry out weekly, on–the-job training, spread over a period of two months, in order to give the students a first hand feel of Toyota’s technology and service systems. As a part of T-TEP, TKM has recruited instructors from Chhindwara area, who can understand the concerns of the students better and amend the training curriculum in accordance with their specific requirements.
 
The instructors have been trained at Toyota’s state of the art facilities in Bangalore. TKM will extend this partnership to other technical institutes in the coming years and plans to reach out to over 700 students every year. TMC and TKM will together fund the project in addition to providing T-TEP hi-tech training packages and Toyota service training manuals and materials.
