T-TEP, a special training module in
which Toyota has tied up with industrial training institutes, was launched in
2006 in India. The program aims at providing technical know-how training to IT
students across India along with providing hands on real time experience within
Toyota dealerships.
After a span of 10 years, TTEP is now
associated with 46 training institutes under the program.
In its first year, the program was
implemented in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Hubli. The program was subsequently
introduced in Bengaluru, Mysuru, Lalru, Pune, Cochin, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad,
Ghaziabad, Kolkata, Jaipur, Jalandhar, Indore, Vizag, Ludhiana, Cuttack, Haldwani,
Nalbari, Gurgaon, Satara , Paramakudi , Chalakudy, Mangaluru, Calicut & Nashik.
Till now around 4594 students are trained
under this training program and 65% have been offered employment opportunities at Toyota Dealerships
across India. This is the third T-TEP in
Andhra Pradesh, including two institutes in Hyderabad and Vizag established in
the years 2007 and 2011 respectively. Till date, a total of 385 students have
been trained by TKM through this program from the state, of which 75% have been
recruited.
With this program, Toyota Kirloskar
Motor intends to enhance the technical abilities and employability of Industrial
Training Institute (ITI) students in the age group of 16 to 18 years. The
program will benefit ITIs in building skilful technicians for the Indian
automotive repair industry. The current automobile repair industry is
characterised by inadequately skilled manpower and lack of professional
training for repair and diagnostics. T-TEP is a unique initiative undertaken by
TKM, in partnership with ITIs and its dealer partners across India to address
this issue.
The event marked the Launch of Body
& Paint TTEP Program. The BP T-TEP training syllabus imparts training on
basic body and paint repair skills in addition to dealer specific requirements
to students, thereby improving their knowledge of repair techniques and
facilitating the adoption of latest technology in Body & Paint. Currently
Body & Paint technicians have limited information and hands on experience
in the usage of correct repair operations and techniques, forcing dealers to
recruit manpower from local garages. Toyota along with its supplier partners, Axalta
Coating Systems India Pvt Ltd and 3M, will provide all necessary support to the
institute i.e. training consumables, visiting faculty, training material,
tools, equipments etc. Introduced in the year 2009, Automotive Body & Paint
repair training has been provided to more than 1200 students till now.
Commenting on the occasion Mr. B Padmanabha Vice President – Customer Service
Group, Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt. Ltd said, “Over the span of 10 years we
have successfully managed to implement our T-TEP program in 419 institutes
across 53 countries. In India, we have established successful association with
46 institutes across cities under the TTEP program. It is in line with Government’s ‘Skill India’ program
helping bridge the gap that lies in the availability of highly skilled
workforce to match up with India’s rapidly growing industrial sector. With these T-TEP launches we are further reinstating
our objective to
carve out opportunities for talented students from the rural areas and make
them more employable for the Indian automobile
industry. As we reach out to other ITIs in the coming
years, we wish to contribute towards a marked increase in the availability of
skilled manpower in the Indian automobile repair industry. We are committed to
provide the best to the students, which will eventually benefit the industry on
the whole”
“The special course of Body & Paint
Technician is designed keeping in mind the advanced technology required for the
Automobile Market. We thrive to give best to the students who will eventually
contribute to the growing Automobile Market and Service Industry” he added
The BP T-TEP, a 1 year syllabus,
introduces students to Toyota’s advanced technology and service techniques. It
also includes, on-the-job training, at Toyota’s dealerships. As a part of this
program, TKM will also train institute instructors in the latest technology,
used at Toyota and the automobile industry.
TKM plans to introduce this program to
technical institutes across the country in the coming years and reach out to
over 1000 students per year. The project is jointly funded by Toyota Motor
Corporation and Toyota Kirloskar Motor. Together they provide T-TEP institutes
with hi-tech training packages and Toyota service training manuals and
materials. Axalta Coating Systems India
Pvt Ltd & 3M India Ltd, have
also extended their support by providing latest equipments and material
required for training
T-TEP supports Toyota’s comprehensive
human resource development system that extends from training at T-TEP
institutes to recruitment and development at Toyota dealerships.
T-TEP is widely recognized across the
globe for its effectiveness. The program has been successfully introduced in
419 institutes across 53 countries by Toyota, which includes USA, Australia,
Italy, South Africa, China, Vietnam and India.
