Toyota Celebrates Workforce Training Pledge at White House

Toyota North American CEO Jim Lentz visited the White House with six Toyota assembly plant team members to attend a ceremony celebrating the one-year anniversary of the “Pledge to America’s Workers” job training initiative.

Back in March, Toyota committed to creating 200,000 Pledge opportunities over the next five years through increased apprenticeships, work-based learning and on-the-job training. Since the announcement, Toyota has trained approximately 18,000 people.
