For the time being, the government plans to introduce the program at 25 vocational schools throughout China, where it is an urgent task to train advanced automotive maintenance technicians who can inspect and repair vehicles as the Chinese automobile market rapidly expands.

In addition to helping to devise the curriculum, TMC will support the program by providing textbooks and teaching materials, supplying vehicles and establishing scholarships for trainees who have potential but face difficulties because of economic or other factors.

Today's ceremony was attended by Liu Zhanshan, director of the Department of Vocational and Adult Education within the Chinese Ministry of Education, and by approximately 100 government officials and Toyota representatives.
