Launched in early 2019 as a pilot program at Toyota’s North American headquarters in Plano, Texas, the Toyota Motor North America Military Technician Education Network (M-TEN) Automotive Technician Apprenticeship Program trains transitioning service members to become automotive technicians. M-TEN participants take 12 weeks of instructor-led training prior to being deployed to a Toyota or Lexus dealership of their choice to serve as an apprentice.
